Towards a barnacle tree of life: integrating diverse phylogenetic efforts into a comprehensive hypothesis of thecostracan evolution [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2019
Barnacles and their allies (Thecostraca) are a biologically diverse, monophyletic crustacean group, which includes both intensely studied taxa, such as the acorn and stalked barnacles, as well as cryptic taxa, for example, Facetotecta.

AMY-tree: an algorithm to use whole genome SNP calling for Y chromosomal phylogenetic applications

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2013
Background Due to the rapid progress of next-generation sequencing (NGS) facilities, an explosion of human whole genome data will become available in the coming years.

All galls are divided into three or more parts: recursive enumeration of labeled histories for galled trees

open access: yesAlgorithms for Molecular Biology, 2023
Objective In mathematical phylogenetics, a labeled rooted binary tree topology can possess any of a number of labeled histories, each of which represents a possible temporal ordering of its coalescences.

IQ-TREE 2: New Models and Efficient Methods for Phylogenetic Inference in the Genomic Era

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2019
IQ-TREE (http://www.iqtree.org) is a user-friendly and widely used software package for phylogenetic inference using maximum likelihood. Since the release of version 1 in 2014, we have continuously expanded IQ-TREE to integrate a plethora of new models ...

A metric on phylogenetic tree shapes [PDF]

open access: yesSystematic Biology, 2016
Abstract The shapes of evolutionary trees are influenced by the nature of the evolutionary process, but comparisons of trees from different processes are hindered by the challenge of completely describing tree shape. We present a full characterization of the shapes of rooted branching trees in a form that lends itself to natural tree ...

Letter: TreeAdder: a tool to assist the optimal positioning of a new leaf into an existing phylogenetic tree [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
TreeAdder is a computer application that adds a leaf in all possible positions on a phylogenetic tree. The resulting set of trees represent a dataset appropriate for maximum likelihood calculation of the optimal tree.

Drawing Phylogenetic Trees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We present linear-time algorithms for drawing phylogenetic trees in radial and circular representations. In radial drawings given edge lengths (representing evolutionary distances) are preserved, but labels (names of taxons represented in the leaves) need to be adjusted, whereas in circular drawings labels are perfectly spread out, but edge lengths ...

Characterization of a Branch of the Phylogenetic Tree [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical Biology, 2003
We use a combination of analytic models and computer simulations to gain insight into the dynamics of evolution. Our results suggest that certain interesting phenomena should eventually emerge from the fossil record. For example, there should be a ``tortoise and hare effect'': Those genera with the smallest species death rate are likely to survive much
