Phylogenetic context using phylogenetic outlines [PDF]

, 2021
A bstract 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 ...

Climate Warming as a Possible Trigger of Keystone Mussel Population Decline in Oligotrophic Rivers at the Continental Scale

Scientific Reports, 2018
The effects of climate change on oligotrophic rivers and their communities are almost unknown, albeit these ecosystems are the primary habitat of the critically endangered freshwater pearl mussel and its host fishes, salmonids.

Combining morphological and genomic evidence to resolve species diversity and study speciation processes of the Pallenopsis patagonica (Pycnogonida) species complex

Frontiers in Zoology, 2019
Background Pallenopsis patagonica (Hoek, 1881) is a morphologically and genetically variable sea spider species whose taxonomic classification is challenging.

Tangent Phylogenetic PCA

, 2023
Phylogenetic PCA (p-PCA) is a version of PCA for observations that are leaf nodes of a phylogenetic tree. P-PCA accounts for the fact that such observations are not independent, due to shared evolutionary history. The method works on Euclidean data, but in evolutionary biology there is a need for applying it to data on manifolds, particularly shapes ...

Robust Phylogenetic Regression

Systematic Biology, 2022
Abstract Modern comparative biology owes much to phylogenetic regression. At its conception, this technique sparked a revolution that armed biologists with phylogenetic comparative methods (PCMs) for disentangling evolutionary correlations from those arising from hierarchical phylogenetic relationships.

Uprooted Phylogenetic Networks [PDF]

Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2017
The need for structures capable of accommodating complex evolutionary signals such as those found in, for example, wheat has fueled research into phylogenetic networks. Such structures generalize the standard model of a phylogenetic tree by also allowing for cycles and have been introduced in rooted and unrooted form.

The effects of fossil taxa, hypothetical predicted ancestors, and a molecular scaffold on pseudoextinction analyses of extant placental orders.

PLoS ONE, 2021
Pseudoextinction analyses, which simulate extinction in extant taxa, use molecular phylogenetics to assess the accuracy of morphological phylogenetics. Previous pseudoextinction analyses have shown a failure of morphological phylogenetics to place some ...

Protein Structural Phylogenetics. [PDF]

Genome Biol Evol
Abstract Protein structural phylogenetics is an interdisciplinary branch of molecular evolution that (i) uses 3D structural data to trace evolutionary histories, and (ii) uses these evolutionary relationships to explore the diversity of protein structures and their ancestral functions.
