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 ...

Phylogenetic inference's algorithms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Phylogenetic inference consist in the search of an evolutionary tree to explain the best way possible genealogical relationships of a set of species.

Plant DNA barcodes and assessment of phylogenetic community structure of a tropical mixed dipterocarp forest in Brunei Darussalam (Borneo). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
DNA barcoding is a fast and reliable tool to assess and monitor biodiversity and, via community phylogenetics, to investigate ecological and evolutionary processes that may be responsible for the community structure of forests.

A metacalibrated time-tree documents the early rise of flowering plant phylogenetic diversity.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2015
The establishment of modern terrestrial life is indissociable from angiosperm evolution. While available molecular clock estimates of angiosperm age range from the Paleozoic to the Late Cretaceous, the fossil record is consistent with angiosperm ...

The neighbor-joining method: a new method for reconstructing phylogenetic trees.

open access: yesMolecular biology and evolution, 1987
A new method called the neighbor-joining method is proposed for reconstructing phylogenetic trees from evolutionary distance data. The principle of this method is to find pairs of operational taxonomic units (OTUs [= neighbors]) that minimize the total ...

Visualising very large phylogenetic trees in three dimensional hyperbolic space

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2004
Background Common existing phylogenetic tree visualisation tools are not able to display readable trees with more than a few thousand nodes. These existing methodologies are based in two dimensional space.

Cotton Duplicated Genes Produced by Polyploidy Show Significantly Elevated and Unbalanced Evolutionary Rates, Overwhelmingly Perturbing Gene Tree Topology

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
A phylogenetic tree can be used to illustrate the evolutionary relationship between a group of genes, especially duplicated genes, which are sources of genetic innovation and are often a hotspot of research.

STRING v10: protein–protein interaction networks, integrated over the tree of life

open access: yesNucleic Acids Res., 2014
The many functional partnerships and interactions that occur between proteins are at the core of cellular processing and their systematic characterization helps to provide context in molecular systems biology.

Comparison of phylogenetic trees defined on different but mutually overlapping sets of taxa: A review

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Phylogenetic trees represent the evolutionary relationships and ancestry of various species or groups of organisms. Comparing these trees by measuring the distance between them is essential for applications such as tree clustering and the Tree of Life ...

Bayesian Inference of the Evolution of a Phenotype Distribution on a Phylogenetic Tree

open access: yesGenetics, 2016
The distribution of a phenotype on a phylogenetic tree is often a quantity of interest. Many phenotypes have imperfect heritability, so that a measurement of the phenotype for an individual can be thought of as a single realization from the phenotype ...
