Phylophenetic properties of metabolic pathway topologies as revealed by global analysis

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2006
Background As phenotypic features derived from heritable characters, the topologies of metabolic pathways contain both phylogenetic and phenetic components.

Building a Robust, Densely-Sampled Spider Tree of Life for Ecosystem Research

open access: yesDiversity, 2020
Phylogenetic relatedness is a key diversity measure for the analysis and understanding of how species and communities evolve across time and space.

Measures of clade confidence do not correlate with accuracy of phylogenetic trees. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2007
Metrics of phylogenetic tree reliability, such as parametric bootstrap percentages or Bayesian posterior probabilities, represent internal measures of the topological reproducibility of a phylogenetic tree, while the recently introduced aLRT (approximate

Gene tree reconciliation: new developments in Bayesian concordance analysis with BUCKy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
When phylogenetic trees inferred from different genes are incongruent, several methods are available to reconcile gene trees and extract the shared phylogenetic information from the sequence data. Bayesian Concordance Analysis, implemented in BUCKy, aims

Comparison of Phylogenetic Tree Topologies for Nitrogen Associated Genes Partially Reconstruct the Evolutionary History of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2019
Massive sequencing projects executed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae have revealed in detail its population structure. The recent “1002 yeast genomes project” has become the most complete catalogue of yeast genetic diversity and a powerful ...

A novel approach to phylogenetic tree construction using stochastic optimization and clustering

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2006
Background The problem of inferring the evolutionary history and constructing the phylogenetic tree with high performance has become one of the major problems in computational biology.

Graph-based method for constructing consensus trees [PDF]

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences
A consensus tree is a phylogenetic tree that synthesizes a given collection of phylogenetic trees, all of which share the same leaf labels but may have different topologies, typically obtained through bootstrapping.

The Future of Systematics: Tree-Thinking Without the Tree [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Phylogenetic trees are meant to represent the genealogical history of life and apparently derive their justification from the existence of the tree of life and the fact that evolutionary processes are tree-like.

PTree: pattern-based, stochastic search for maximum parsimony phylogenies [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2013
Phylogenetic reconstruction is vital to analyzing the evolutionary relationship of genes within and across populations of different species. Nowadays, with next generation sequencing technologies producing sets comprising thousands of sequences, robust ...
