Phylogenetic Typology [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
In this article we propose a novel method to estimate the frequency distribution of linguistic variables while controlling for statistical non-independence due to shared ancestry. Unlike previous approaches, our technique uses all available data, from language families large and small as well as from isolates, while controlling for different degrees of

Microbial Phylogenetic Context Using Phylogenetic Outlines [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Biology and Evolution, 2021
Abstract Microbial studies typically involve the sequencing and assembly of draft genomes for individual microbes or whole microbiomes. Given a draft genome, one first task is to determine its phylogenetic context, that is, to place it relative to the set of related reference genomes.

Phylogenetic Comparative Methods on Phylogenetic Networks with Reticulations [PDF]

open access: yesSystematic Biology, 2017
Abstract The goal of phylogenetic comparative methods (PCMs) is to study the distribution of quantitative traits among related species. The observed traits are often seen as the result of a Brownian Motion (BM) along the branches of a phylogenetic tree.

Polyploid phylogenetics [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2021
SummaryPolyploidy is a dominant feature of extant plant diversity. However, major research questions, including whether polyploidy is important to long‐term evolution or is just ‘evolutionary noise’, remain unresolved due to difficulties associated with the generation and analysis of data from polyploid lineages.

First report Xenocorixa vittipennis (Horváth) (Hemiptera, Corixoidea, Corixidae) from South Korea and checklist of the Korean Corixoidea [PDF]

open access: yesBiodiversity Data Journal
Xenocorixa Hungerford, 1947 is a monotypic genus containing a single species, Xenocorixa vittipennis (Horváth, 1879), known only from China (Beijing, Hubei, Shandong, Shanghai, Tianjin, Zhejiang), Japan (Honshu, Shikoku, Kyushu) and Taiwan.Xenocorixa ...

Phylogenetic reconciliation

open access: yesPLOS Computational Biology, 2022
In phylogenetics, reconciliation is an approach to connect the history of two or more coevolving biological entities. The general idea of reconciliation is that a phylogenetic tree representing the evolution of an entity (e.g. homologous genes, symbionts…) can be drawn within another phylogenetic tree representing an encompassing entity (respectively ...

Miocene diversification of a golden‐thread nanmu tree species (Phoebe zhennan, Lauraceae) around the Sichuan Basin shaped by the East Asian monsoon

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Understanding the role of climate changes and geography as drivers of population divergence and speciation is a long‐standing goal of evolutionary biology and can inform conservation. In this study, we used restriction site‐associated DNA sequencing (RAD‐

Transitional areas of vegetation as biodiversity hotspots evidenced by multifaceted biodiversity analysis of a dominant group in Chinese evergreen broad-leaved forests

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Species in transitional areas often display adaptive responses to climate change and such areas may be crucial for long-term biodiversity conservation.
