A new resolution function to evaluate tree shape statistics.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Phylogenetic trees are frequently used in biology to study the relationships between a number of species or organisms. The shape of a phylogenetic tree contains useful information about patterns of speciation and extinction, so powerful tools are needed ...

Understanding the tree of life: an overview of tree-reading skill frameworks

open access: yesEvolution: Education and Outreach, 2019
Diagrammatic depictions of evolutionary relationships play an increasingly important role in scientific and educational literature. Reading evolutionary trees is seen as a major challenge for biologists in learning about evolution and its applications in

Conflicting phylogenetic signals in plastomes of the tribe Laureae (Lauraceae) [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
Background Gene tree discordance is common in phylogenetic analyses. Many phylogenetic studies have excluded non-coding regions of the plastome without evaluating their impact on tree topology. In general, plastid loci have often been treated as a single

The Fair Proportion is a Shapley Value on phylogenetic networks too

open access: yes, 2018
The Fair Proportion of a species in a phylogenetic tree is a very simple measure that has been used to assess its value relative to the overall phylogenetic diversity represented by the tree.

Efficient FPT algorithms for (strict) compatibility of unrooted phylogenetic trees

open access: yes, 2016
In phylogenetics, a central problem is to infer the evolutionary relationships between a set of species $X$; these relationships are often depicted via a phylogenetic tree -- a tree having its leaves univocally labeled by elements of $X$ and without ...

Taxonomic classification of genus Aeromonas using open reading frame-based binarized structure network analysis

open access: yesFujita Medical Journal
Objectives: Taxonomic assignment based on whole-genome sequencing data facilitates clear demarcation of species within a complex genus. Here, we applied a unique pan-genome phylogenetic method, open reading frame (ORF)-based binarized structure network ...

Aegilops tauschii Coss. molecular phylogeny in comparison with proteins electrophoretic polymorphism

open access: yesActa Biologica Sibirica, 2023
In the case of Aegilops tauschii the comparison of intraspecies molecular phylogeny based on DNA sequences of nuclear gene Got2 with electrophoretic polymorphism of allozymes and hystone H1 proteins is actually a comparison of the one detailed ...

Whole Genome Phylogenetic Tree Reconstruction Using Colored de Bruijn Graphs

open access: yes, 2017
We present kleuren, a novel assembly-free method to reconstruct phylogenetic trees using the Colored de Bruijn Graph. kleuren works by constructing the Colored de Bruijn Graph and then traversing it, finding bubble structures in the graph that provide ...

The enigmatic monotypic crab plover Dromas ardeola is closely related to pratincoles and coursers (Aves, Charadriiformes, Glareolidae)

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2010
The phylogenetic placement of the monotypic crab plover Dromas ardeola (Aves, Charadriiformes) remains controversial. Phylogenetic analysis of anatomical and behavioral traits using phenetic and cladistic methods of tree inference have resulted in ...
