Prescottia equi gen. nov., comb. nov.: a new home for an old pathogen [PDF]
, 2012 The taxonomic status of Rhodococcus equi, originally isolated from foal specimens, has been the subject of discussion for a number of years. The chequered history of the taxon has prompted this polyphasic analysis of R. equi strains, close members of the

Unifying Parsimonious Tree Reconciliation
, 2013 Evolution is a process that is influenced by various environmental factors, e.g. the interactions between different species, genes, and biogeographical properties.

Gene Tree Parsimony for Incomplete Gene Trees [PDF]
, 2017 Species tree estimation from gene trees can be complicated by gene duplication and loss, and "gene tree parsimony" (GTP) is one approach for estimating species trees from multiple gene trees.

Support measures to estimate the reliability of evolutionary events predicted by reconciliation methods [PDF]
, 2013 International audienceThe genome content of extant species is derived from that of ancestral genomes, distorted by evolutionary events such as gene duplications, transfers and losses. Reconciliation methods aim at recovering such events and at localizing

Codivergence and multiple host species use by fig wasp populations of the Ficus pollination mutualism [PDF]
, 2012 Background The interaction between insects and plants takes myriad forms in the generation of spectacular diversity. In this association a species host range is fundamental and often measured using an estimate of phylogenetic concordance between species.

Maximum likelihood models and algorithms for gene tree evolution with duplications and losses
BMC Bioinformatics, 2011 Background The abundance of new genomic data provides the opportunity to map the location of gene duplication and loss events on a species phylogeny. The first methods for mapping gene duplications and losses were based on a parsimony criterion, finding ...

BadiRate: estimating family turnover rates by likelihood-based methods [PDF]
, 2014 Podeu consultar el programari a: http://hdl.handle.net/2445/53403Motivation: The comparative analysis of gene gain and loss rates is critical for understanding the role of natural selection and adaptation in shaping gene family sizes. Studying complete

Multimodal Data‐Driven Microstructure Characterization
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A self‐consistent autonomous workflow for EBSP‐based microstructure segmentation by integrating PCA, GMM clustering, and cNMF with information‐theoretic parameter selection, requiring no user input. An optimal ROI size related to characteristic grain size is identified.

Neighborhoods of trees in circular orderings [PDF]
, 2015 In phylogenetics, a common strategy used to construct an evolutionary tree for a set of species X is to search in the space of all such trees for one that optimizes some given score function (such as the minimum evolution, parsimony or likelihood score).

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Wound closure is governed by geometry‐orientation coupling: aligned fibers speed migration along their axis but hinder perpendicular advance. In vivo diabetic wound experiments with composition‐matched fibrin, combined with an anisotropic diffusion (biased random‐walk) model, quantify this trade‐off and generate a healing landscape.
