Matchings and phylogenetic trees [PDF]
This paper presents a natural coordinate system for phylogenetic trees using a correspondence with the set of perfect matchings in the complete graph. This correspondence produces a distance between phylogenetic trees, and a way of enumerating all trees in a minimal step order. It is useful in randomized algorithms because it enables moves on the space

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

Fungal screening and phylogenetic tree construction [PDF]
The second-generation sequencing technology has achieved rapid development in recent years. It has the advantages of fast speed, high accuracy and low cost compared to the former sequence, so it has a widely application.

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.

A Practical Algorithm for Reconstructing Level-1 Phylogenetic Networks [PDF]
Recently much attention has been devoted to the construction of phylogenetic networks which generalize phylogenetic trees in order to accommodate complex evolutionary processes. Here we present an efficient, practical algorithm for reconstructing level-1

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

Systematic errors in phylogenetic trees [PDF]
The effort to reconstruct the tree of life was revolutionized by the use of sequences of proteins and nucleic acids. Phylogenetic trees are now routinely inferred using hundreds of thousands of amino acid or nucleotide characters. It thus seems surprising that many aspects of the tree of life are still controversial; conflicting results between large ...

On Symmetries in Phylogenetic Trees [PDF]
Billey et al. [arXiv:1507.04976] have recently discovered a surprisingly simple formula for the number $a_n(\sigma)$ of leaf-labelled rooted non-embedded binary trees (also known as phylogenetic trees) with $n\geq 1$ leaves, fixed (for the relabelling action) by a given permutation $\sigma\in\frak{S}_n$.

ü . On the Construction of a Phylogenetic Tree
Abstract Phylogenetic Dendrograms, Molecular Evolution For the construction of a phylogenetic tree an algorithm is described. This, allows the correction of the original data and the proper selection, in each step of the process, of the nearest neighbours of a common ancestor.
