phytools 2.0: an updated R ecosystem for phylogenetic comparative methods (and other things)

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2023
Phylogenetic comparative methods comprise the general endeavor of using an estimated phylogenetic tree (or set of trees) to make secondary inferences: about trait evolution, diversification dynamics, biogeography, community ecology, and a wide range of ...

When Do Phylogenetic Mixture Models Mimic Other Phylogenetic Models?

open access: yes, 2012
Phylogenetic mixture models, in which the sites in sequences undergo different substitution processes along the same or different trees, allow the description of heterogeneous evolutionary processes.

Maximize Resolution or Minimize Error? Using Genotyping-By-Sequencing to Investigate the Recent Diversification of Helianthemum (Cistaceae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
A robust phylogenetic framework, in terms of extensive geographical and taxonomic sampling, well-resolved species relationships and high certainty of tree topologies and branch length estimations, is critical in the study of macroevolutionary patterns ...

The complete mitochondrial genomes of Macrostylophora euteles and Citellophilus tesquorum sungaris and the phylogenetics of known Siphonaptera mitogenomes

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science
Fleas serve as hosts to a diverse array of pathogens, which present significant medical and veterinary concerns for human and livestock health. The mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) has long been regarded as a classical model in biogenetics and species ...

The phylogenetic regression

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. B, Biological Sciences, 1989
A new statistical method called the phylogenetic regression is proposed that applies multiple regression techniques to cross-species data. It allows continuous and categorical variables to be tested for and controlled for. The new method is valid despite the problem that phylogenetically close species tend to be similar, and is designed to be used when

CHARACTER ASSESSMENT, GENUS LEVEL BOUNDARIES, AND PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSES OF THE FAMILY RHACOPHORIDAE:: A REVIEW AND PRESENT DAY STATUS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The first comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of the family Rhacophoridae was conducted by Liem (1970) scoring 81 species for 36 morphological characters. Channing (1989), in a reanalysis of Liem’s study, produced a phylogenetic hypothesis different from

Comparative Analysis of Chloroplast Genome Structure and Phylogenetic Relationships Among Six Taxa Within the Genus Catalpa (Bignoniaceae)

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Species within the Genus Catalpa are mostly semievergreen or deciduous trees with opposite or whorled leaves. C. bungei, C. fargesii f. duclouxii and C. fargesii are sources of traditional precious wood in China, known as the “kings of wood”.

The Phylogenetic Likelihood Library [PDF]

open access: yesSystematic Biology, 2014
We introduce the Phylogenetic Likelihood Library (PLL), a highly optimized application programming interface for developing likelihood-based phylogenetic inference and postanalysis software. The PLL implements appropriate data structures and functions that allow users to quickly implement common, error-prone, and labor-intensive tasks, such as ...

RAxML-VI-HPC: maximum likelihood-based phylogenetic analyses with thousands of taxa and mixed models

open access: yesBioinform., 2006
UNLABELLED RAxML-VI-HPC (randomized axelerated maximum likelihood for high performance computing) is a sequential and parallel program for inference of large phylogenies with maximum likelihood (ML).
