DAMBE6: New Tools for Microbial Genomics, Phylogenetics, and Molecular Evolution

open access: yesJournal of Heredity, 2017
DAMBE is a comprehensive software workbench for data analysis in molecular biology, phylogenetics, and evolution. Several important new functions have been added since version 5 of DAMBE: 1) comprehensive genomic profiling of translation initiation ...

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

open access: yesPLoS 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 ...

Phylogenomics — principles, opportunities and pitfalls of big‐data phylogenetics

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, 2019
Phylogenetics is the science of reconstructing the evolutionary history of life on Earth. Traditionally, phylogenies were constructed using morphological data only, but the introduction of Sanger sequencing and PCR in the late 1970s enabled genetic ...

A surrogate function for one-dimensional phylogenetic likelihoods

open access: yes, 2017
Phylogenetics has seen an steady increase in substitution model complexity, which requires increasing amounts of computational power to compute likelihoods.

Molecular Phylogenetics

open access: yesEncyclopedia of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology, 2019
We report here the discovery of a remarkable new monotypic mygalomorph spider genus, known only from one geographical location along the central coast of California. The single relict species comprising Cryptocteniza kawtak n. gen. n. sp.

Labellable Phylogenetic Networks

open access: yesBulletin of Mathematical Biology, 2023
AbstractPhylogenetic networks are mathematical representations of evolutionary history that are able to capture both tree-like evolutionary processes (speciations) and non-tree-like ‘reticulate’ processes such as hybridization or horizontal gene transfer.

Hippo pathway phylogenetics predicts monoubiquitylation of Salvador and Merlin/Nf2. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Recently we employed phylogenetics to predict that the cellular interpretation of TGF-β signals is modulated by monoubiquitylation cycles affecting the Smad4 signal transducer/tumor suppressor. This prediction was subsequently validated by experiments in

Bayesian Phylogenetics with BEAUti and the BEAST 1.7

open access: yesMolecular biology and evolution, 2012
Computational evolutionary biology, statistical phylogenetics and coalescent-based population genetics are becoming increasingly central to the analysis and understanding of molecular sequence data.

The phylogenetic regression

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. B, Biological Sciences, 1989
A new statistical method called the phylogenetic regression is proposed that applies multiple regression techniques to cross-species data. It allows continuous and categorical variables to be tested for and controlled for. The new method is valid despite the problem that phylogenetically close species tend to be similar, and is designed to be used when
