Community phylogeny and spatial scale affect phylogenetic diversity metrics in a species‐rich rainforest in Borneo

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Community phylogenetic analysis is an effective approach to understanding the process of community formation. The phylogenetic tree of the species pool is reconstructed in the first step, and the phylogenetic tree obtained in the second step is used to ...

ENJ algorithm can construct triple phylogenetic trees

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2021
Phylogenetic analysis is used to analyze the evolution of species according to the characteristics of biological sequences. The analytical results are generally represented by phylogenetic trees.

Phylogenetic trees: Grammar versus vocabulary

open access: yesRussian Journal of Linguistics, 2022
Traditionally, genealogical relationships between languages are established on the basis of phonetic and lexical data. The question whether genealogical relationships among languages can be defined based on grammatical data remains unanswered.

Matchings and phylogenetic trees [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1998
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

Species divergence and phylogenetic variation of ecophysiological traits in lianas and trees. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The climbing habit is an evolutionary key innovation in plants because it is associated with enhanced clade diversification. We tested whether patterns of species divergence and variation of three ecophysiological traits that are fundamental for plant ...

Drawing Phylogenetic Trees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
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 ...

The Shapley value of phylogenetic trees [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Biology, 2007
References added, and a section (calculating the Shapley value of a tree game from its subtrees) was removed for length reasons (request of referee) and may appear in another paper. 16 pages; related work at http://www.math.hmc.edu/~su/papers.html. Journal of Mathematical Biology, to appear.

Characterization of a Branch of the Phylogenetic Tree [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical Biology, 2003
We use a combination of analytic models and computer simulations to gain insight into the dynamics of evolution. Our results suggest that certain interesting phenomena should eventually emerge from the fossil record. For example, there should be a ``tortoise and hare effect'': Those genera with the smallest species death rate are likely to survive much
