Phylogenetic Networks as Circuits With Resistance Distance

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
Phylogenetic networks are notoriously difficult to reconstruct. Here we suggest that it can be useful to view unknown genetic distance along edges in phylogenetic networks as analogous to unknown resistance in electric circuits. This resistance distance,

Phylogeny and Biogeographic History of Parnassius Butterflies (Papilionidae: Parnassiinae) Reveal Their Origin and Deep Diversification in West China

open access: yesInsects, 2022
We studied 239 imagoes of 12 Parnassius species collected from the mountains of the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP) and its neighbouring areas in China.

Orienting undirected phylogenetic networks

open access: yesJournal of Computer and System Sciences, 2023
This paper studies the relationship between undirected (unrooted) and directed (rooted) phylogenetic networks. We describe a polynomial-time algorithm for deciding whether an undirected nonbinary phylogenetic network, given the locations of the root and reticulation vertices, can be oriented as a directed nonbinary phylogenetic network.

Sympatric divergence of the ergot fungus, Claviceps purpurea, populations infecting agricultural and nonagricultural grasses in North America

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
The ergot diseases of agricultural and nonagricultural grasses are caused by the infection of Claviceps spp. (Hypocreales, Ascomycota) on florets, producing dark spur‐like sclerotia on spikes that are toxic to humans and animals, leading to detrimental ...

Path partitions of phylogenetic networks

open access: hybridTheoretical Computer Science
In phylogenetics, evolution is traditionally represented in a tree-like manner. However, phylogenetic networks can be more appropriate for representing evolutionary events such as hybridization, horizontal gene transfer, and others. In particular, the class of forest-based networks was recently introduced to represent introgression, in which genes are ...

Clustering systems of phylogenetic networks

open access: yesTheory in Biosciences, 2023
AbstractRooted acyclic graphs appear naturally when the phylogenetic relationship of a set X of taxa involves not only speciations but also recombination, horizontal transfer, or hybridization that cannot be captured by trees. A variety of classes of such networks have been discussed in the literature, including phylogenetic, level-1, tree-child, tree ...

Implementing Large Genomic SNP Datasets in Phylogenetic Network Reconstructions: A Case Study of Particularly Rapid Radiations of Cichlid Fish.

open access: yesSystematic Biology, 2020
The Midas cichlids of the Amphilophus citrinellus spp. species complex from Nicaragua (13 species) are an extraordinary example of adaptive and rapid radiation (< 24,000 years old).

Heading in the right direction? Using head moves to traverse phylogenetic network space [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Graph Algorithms Appl., 2018
Head moves are a type of rearrangement moves for phylogenetic networks. They have mostly been studied as part of more encompassing types of moves, such as rSPR moves. Here, we study head moves as a type of moves on themselves.

Different influences of phylogenetically conserved and independent floral traits on plant functional specialization and pollination network structure

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Plant specialization and pollination network structure play important roles in community assembly. Floral traits can mediate plant–pollinator interactions and thus have important impacts on nestedness and modularity of pollination network.
