Poxvirus genomes: a phylogenetic analysis
The evolutionary relationships of 26 sequenced members of the poxvirus family have been investigated by comparing their genome organization and gene content and by using DNA and protein sequences for phylogenetic analyses. The central region of the genome of chordopoxviruses (ChPVs) is highly conserved in gene content and arrangement, except for some ...

Natural selection and phylogenetic analysis [PDF]
If Darwin were to survey the entirety of the biological sciences today, he would be pleased to observe how central phylogenies and “tree thinking” are to integrative research (1). Biologists of all stripes now realize that phylogenies are not exotic, but fundamental and routine tools for understanding not only history but mechanism, organization, and ...

Stability analysis of phylogenetic trees [PDF]
Abstract Motivation: Phylogenetics, or reconstructing the evolutionary relationships of organisms, is critical for understanding evolution. A large number of heuristic algorithms for phylogenetics have been developed, some of which enable estimates of trees with tens of thousands of taxa. Such trees may not be robust, as small changes in

Molecular phylogenetic evaluation of classification and scenarios of character evolution in calcareous sponges (Porifera, Class Calcarea). [PDF]
Calcareous sponges (Phylum Porifera, Class Calcarea) are known to be taxonomically difficult. Previous molecular studies have revealed many discrepancies between classically recognized taxa and the observed relationships at the order, family and genus ...

The plastid genome sequence of Neocinnamomum delavayi (Lec.) Liou
Neocinnamomum delavayi (Lec.) Liou is a kind of medicinal plants belonging to the genus Neocinnamomum H. Liu, but is often confused with N. mekongense (Hand.-Mazz.) Kosterm. Here, the complete plastid sequence of the N. delavayi was determined.
