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.

Uncertainty in Phylogenetic Tree Estimates [PDF]
Estimating phylogenetic trees is an important problem in evolutionary biology, environmental policy, and medicine. Although trees are estimated, their uncertainties are generally discarded in statistical models for tree-valued data. Here, we explicitly model the multivariate uncertainty of tree estimates.

Folding and unfolding phylogenetic trees and networks [PDF]
Phylogenetic networks are rooted, labelled directed acyclic graphs which are commonly used to represent reticulate evolution. There is a close relationship between phylogenetic networks and multi-labelled trees (MUL-trees).

Phylogenetic mixtures on a single tree can mimic a tree of another topology [PDF]
Phylogenetic mixtures model the inhomogeneous molecular evolution commonly observed in data. The performance of phylogenetic reconstruction methods where the underlying data is generated by a mixture model has stimulated considerable recent debate.

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 ...

A synthesis tree of the Copepoda: integrating phylogenetic and taxonomic data reveals multiple origins of parasitism [PDF]
The Copepoda is a clade of pancrustaceans containing 14,485 species that are extremely varied in their morphology and lifestyle. Not only do copepods dominate marine plankton and sediment communities and make up a sizeable component of the freshwater ...

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 $\sigma\in\frak{S}_n$.

Drawing Phylogenetic Trees [PDF]
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 ...

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.
