A metric on phylogenetic tree shapes [PDF]

open access: yesSystematic Biology, 2016
Abstract The shapes of evolutionary trees are influenced by the nature of the evolutionary process, but comparisons of trees from different processes are hindered by the challenge of completely describing tree shape. We present a full characterization of the shapes of rooted branching trees in a form that lends itself to natural tree ...

PhyloFinder: An intelligent search engine for phylogenetic tree databases

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2008
Background Bioinformatic tools are needed to store and access the rapidly growing phylogenetic data. These tools should enable users to identify existing phylogenetic trees containing a specified taxon or set of taxa and to compare a specified ...

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 ...

Rearrangement operations on unrooted phylogenetic networks

open access: yesTheory and Applications of Graphs, 2019
Rearrangement operations transform a phylogenetic tree into another one and hence induce a metric on the space of phylogenetic trees. Popular operations for unrooted phylogenetic trees are NNI (nearest neighbour interchange), SPR (subtree prune and ...

A vectorial tree distance measure

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
A vectorial distance measure for trees is presented. Given two trees, we define a Tree-Alignment (T-Alignment). We T-align the trees from their centers outwards, starting from the root-branches, to make the next level as similar as possible.

PhySortR: a fast, flexible tool for sorting phylogenetic trees in R [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2016
A frequent bottleneck in interpreting phylogenomic output is the need to screen often thousands of trees for features of interest, particularly robust clades of specific taxa, as evidence of monophyletic relationship and/or reticulated evolution. Here we

The agreement distance of unrooted phylogenetic networks [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2020
A rearrangement operation makes a small graph-theoretical change to a phylogenetic network to transform it into another one. For unrooted phylogenetic trees and networks, popular rearrangement operations are tree bisection and reconnection (TBR) and ...

Distances Between Phylogenetic Trees: A Survey

open access: yesTsinghua Science and Technology, 2013
Phylogenetic trees have been widely used in the study of evolutionary biology for representing the tree-like evolution of a collection of species. However, different data sets and different methods often lead to the construction of different phylogenetic
