Linking great apes genome evolution across time scales using polymorphism-aware phylogenetic models [PDF]
, 2017 The genomes of related species contain valuable information on the history of the considered taxa. Great apes in particular exhibit variation of evolutionary patterns along their genomes. However, the great ape data also bring new challenges, such as the

Duplicate Detection in Probabilistic Data [PDF]
, 2009 Collected data often contains uncertainties. Probabilistic databases have been proposed to manage uncertain data. To combine data from multiple autonomous probabilistic databases, an integration of probabilistic data has to be performed.

Reticulate evolutionary history of a complex group of grasses: phylogeny of Elymus StStHH allotetraploids based on three nuclear genes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 BACKGROUND: Elymus (Poaceae) is a large genus of polyploid species in the wheat tribe Triticeae. It is polyphyletic, exhibiting many distinct allopolyploid genome combinations, and its history might be further complicated by introgression and lineage ...

Diversity, 2023 The analysis of phylogeographic patterns has often been based on mitochondrial DNA variation, but recent analyses dealing with nuclear DNA have in some instances revealed mito-nuclear discordances and complex evolutionary histories.

Polyploidy breaks speciation barriers in Australian burrowing frogs Neobatrachus [PDF]
, 2020 Polyploidy has played an important role in evolution across the tree of life but it is still unclear how polyploid lineages may persist after their initial formation.

An HMM-based Comparative Genomic Framework for Detecting Introgression in Eukaryotes [PDF]
, 2013 One outcome of interspecific hybridization and subsequent effects of evolutionary forces is introgression, which is the integration of genetic material from one species into the genome of an individual in another species.

Using supernetworks to distinguish hybridization from lineage-sorting
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2008 Background A simple and widely used approach for detecting hybridization in phylogenies is to reconstruct gene trees from independent gene loci, and to look for gene tree incongruence.

A polynomial time algorithm for calculating the probability of a ranked gene tree given a species tree [PDF]
, 2012 In this paper, we provide a polynomial time algorithm to calculate the probability of a {\it ranked} gene tree topology for a given species tree, where a ranked tree topology is a tree topology with the internal vertices being ordered. The probability of
