In the Light of Deep Coalescence: Revisiting Trees Within Networks [PDF]
, 2016 Phylogenetic networks model reticulate evolutionary histories. The last two decades have seen an increased interest in establishing mathematical results and developing computational methods for inferring and analyzing these networks.

Does more sequence data improve estimates of galliform phylogeny? Analyses of a rapid radiation using a complete data matrix [PDF]
PeerJ, 2014 The resolution of rapid evolutionary radiations or “bushes” in the tree of life has been one of the most difficult and interesting problems in phylogenetics. The avian order Galliformes appears to have undergone several rapid radiations that have limited

Testing for polytomies in phylogenetic species trees using quartet frequencies
, 2018 Phylogenetic species trees typically represent the speciation history as a bifurcating tree. Speciation events that simultaneously create more than two descendants, thereby creating polytomies in the phylogeny, are possible.

Three new species of the spider genus Naphrys Edwards (Araneae, Salticidae) under morphology and molecular data with notes in the distribution of Naphrys acerba (Peckham & Peckham) from Mexico [PDF]
PeerJHerein, we describe three new species of the spider genus Naphrys Edwards, 2003 from Mexico: Naphrys echeri sp. nov., Naphrys tecoxquin sp. nov., and Naphrys tuuca sp. nov.

Diversity, 2018 The delineation of species is important to the fields of evolution, ecology and conservation. The use of only a single line of evidence, e.g., morphology or a single gene sequence, may underestimate or overestimate the level of diversity within a taxon ...

Inferring Phylogenetic Networks with Maximum Pseudolikelihood under Incomplete Lineage Sorting. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2016 Phylogenetic networks are necessary to represent the tree of life expanded by edges to represent events such as horizontal gene transfers, hybridizations or gene flow. Not all species follow the paradigm of vertical inheritance of their genetic material.

The inference of gene trees with species trees [PDF]
, 2013 Molecular phylogeny has focused mainly on improving models for the reconstruction of gene trees based on sequence alignments. Yet, most phylogeneticists seek to reveal the history of species. Although the histories of genes and species are tightly linked,

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Here, we present a high‐density PEDOT eutectogel electrode array for enhanced body surface gastric mapping. Silver electrodes are blade‐coated onto flexible substrates, followed by electrogelation of PEDOT:PSS and the deposition of a PEDOT:LS eutectogel.
