Multipolar Consensus for Phylogenetic Trees [PDF]

open access: yesSystematic Biology, 2006
Collections of phylogenetic trees are usually summarized using consensus methods. These methods build a single tree, supposed to be representative of the collection. However, in the case of heterogeneous collections of trees, the resulting consensus may be poorly resolved (strict consensus, majority-rule consensus, ...), or may perform arbitrary ...

A Fast and Scalable Method for Inferring Phylogenetic Networks from Trees by Aligning Lineage Taxon Strings [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
The reconstruction of phylogenetic networks is an important but challenging problem in phylogenetics and genome evolution, as the space of phylogenetic networks is vast and cannot be sampled well. One approach to the problem is to solve the minimum phylogenetic network problem, in which phylogenetic trees are first inferred, then the smallest ...

phytools 2.0: an updated R ecosystem for phylogenetic comparative methods (and other things)

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2023
Phylogenetic comparative methods comprise the general endeavor of using an estimated phylogenetic tree (or set of trees) to make secondary inferences: about trait evolution, diversification dynamics, biogeography, community ecology, and a wide range of ...

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

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 ...

A QUBO formulation for the Tree Containment problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Phylogenetic (evolutionary) trees and networks are leaf-labeled graphs that are widely used to represent the evolutionary relationships between entities such as species, languages, cancer cells, and viruses. To reconstruct and analyze phylogenetic networks, the problem of deciding whether or not a given rooted phylogenetic network embeds a given rooted

Treewidth distance on phylogenetic trees [PDF]

open access: yesTheoretical Computer Science, 2018
In this article we study the treewidth of the \emph{display graph}, an auxiliary graph structure obtained from the fusion of phylogenetic (i.e., evolutionary) trees at their leaves. Earlier work has shown that the treewidth of the display graph is bounded if the trees are in some formal sense topologically similar.

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

BiGG Models 2020: multi-strain genome-scale models and expansion across the phylogenetic tree

open access: yesNucleic Acids Res., 2019
The BiGG Models knowledge base (http://bigg.ucsd.edu) is a centralized repository for high-quality genome-scale metabolic models. For the past 12 years, the website has allowed users to browse and search metabolic models.
