PhyloPattern: regular expressions to identify complex patterns in phylogenetic trees
BMC Bioinformatics, 2009 Background To effectively apply evolutionary concepts in genome-scale studies, large numbers of phylogenetic trees have to be automatically analysed, at a level approaching human expertise.

On Nakhleh's latest metric for phylogenetic networks [PDF]
arXiv, 2008 We prove that Nakhleh's latest dissimilarity measure for phylogenetic networks is a metric on the classes of tree-child phylogenetic networks, of semi-binary time consistent tree-sibling phylogenetic networks, and of multi-labeled phylogenetic trees. We also prove that it distinguishes phylogenetic networks with different reduced versions. In this way,

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The genome of Megachile rotundata, an extensively managed solitary pollination bee species, has been sequenced, covering 280.68 Mb and predicting 10 701 genes. The study reveals significant expansions of the Toll gene family and their abundant expression in diapause prepupae, highlighting enhanced immune responses during diapause. This genome serves as

Community Phylogenetics: Assessing Tree Reconstruction Methods and the Utility of DNA Barcodes.
PLoS ONE, 2015 Studies examining phylogenetic community structure have become increasingly prevalent, yet little attention has been given to the influence of the input phylogeny on metrics that describe phylogenetic patterns of co-occurrence.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Two closely related whitefly species, Trialeurodes vaporariorum and Bemisia tabaci, are found to each possess a plant‐derived TLP gene, but with entirely different functions. This finding of functional divergence challenges the notion that HGT genes maintain similar functions across species and shows that they can follow unique evolutionary paths that ...

Evolution‐Guided Discovery of Antimycobacterial Triculamin‐Like Lasso Peptides
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.The hypothesized convergent biosynthesis of triculamin‐like lasso peptides from different biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) types represented across multiple bacterial phyla. The elucidation of the triculamin non‐canonical BGC and resistance mechanism by heterologous expression in Streptomyces albus and in vitro acetylation with resistance conveying ...

Phylogenetic search through partial tree mixing
BMC Bioinformatics, 2012 Background Recent advances in sequencing technology have created large data sets upon which phylogenetic inference can be performed. Current research is limited by the prohibitive time necessary to perform tree search on a reasonable number of ...

Slim Sets of Binary Trees [PDF]
arXiv, 2010 A classical problem in phylogenetic tree analysis is to decide whether there is a phylogenetic tree $T$ that contains all information of a given collection $\cP$ of phylogenetic trees. If the answer is "yes" we say that $\cP$ is compatible and $T$ displays $\cP$.

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Secondary metabolites (SMs) are essential across all life domains, yet those originating from the Archaea domain remain poorly understood. Here, the systematic genome mining and the pioneering heterologous expression of archaeal SMs have revealed the chemical landscape of archaeal lanthipeptides, showing both canonical and non‐canonical forms.
