Phylogenetic Typology [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
In this article we propose a novel method to estimate the frequency distribution of linguistic variables while controlling for statistical non-independence due to shared ancestry. Unlike previous approaches, our technique uses all available data, from language families large and small as well as from isolates, while controlling for different degrees of

Phylogenetic trees [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Software for Algebra and Geometry, 2021
We introduce the package PhylogeneticTrees for Macaulay2 which allows users to compute phylogenetic invariants for group-based tree models. We provide some background information on phylogenetic algebraic geometry and show how the package PhylogeneticTrees can be used to calculate a generating set for a phylogenetic ideal as well as a lower bound for ...

Phylogenetic reconciliation

open access: yesPLOS Computational Biology, 2022
In phylogenetics, reconciliation is an approach to connect the history of two or more coevolving biological entities. The general idea of reconciliation is that a phylogenetic tree representing the evolution of an entity (e.g. homologous genes, symbionts…) can be drawn within another phylogenetic tree representing an encompassing entity (respectively ...

Microbial Phylogenetic Context Using Phylogenetic Outlines [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Biology and Evolution, 2021
AbstractMicrobial studies typically involve the sequencing and assembly of draft genomes for individual microbes or whole microbiomes. Given a draft genome, one first task is to determine its phylogenetic context, that is, to place it relative to the set of related reference genomes.

Galactic Phylogenetics [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2017
AbstractPhylogenetics is a widely used concept in evolutionary biology. It is the reconstruction of evolutionary history by building trees that represent branching patterns and sequences. These trees represent shared history, and it is our contention that this approach can be employed in the analysis of Galactic history.

Phylogenetic Comparative Methods on Phylogenetic Networks with Reticulations [PDF]

open access: yesSystematic Biology, 2017
Abstract The goal of phylogenetic comparative methods (PCMs) is to study the distribution of quantitative traits among related species. The observed traits are often seen as the result of a Brownian Motion (BM) along the branches of a phylogenetic tree. Reticulation events such as hybridization, gene flow or horizontal gene transfer, can

Phylogenetic context using phylogenetic outlines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
AbstractMicrobial studies typically involve the sequencing and assembly of draft genomes for individual microbes or whole microbiomes. Given a draft genome, one first task is to determine its phylogenetic context, that is, to place it relative to the set of related reference genomes.

Functional Characterization of MaZIP4, a Gene Regulating Copper Stress Tolerance in Mulberry (Morus atropurpurea R.)

open access: yesLife, 2022
ZIP4 (zinc transporter 4) plays important roles in transporting Cu2+ ions in plants, which may contribute to the maintenance of plant metal homeostasis in growth, plant development and normal physiological metabolism.

A new species of Charinus Simon 1892 from Brazil, with notes on behavior (Amblypygi, Charinidae)

open access: yesZooKeys, 2016
A new species of Charinus is described and illustrated from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. Charinus ruschii sp. n. is found in Santa Lúcia reserve, Espírito Santo state, and is sympatric with C. brasilianus and C. montanus.
