The Mitochondrial Genome in Nematode Phylogenetics

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
In recent decades, great strides have been made using various kinds of data including molecular sequences to clarify the phylogenetic relationships of nematodes.

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

open access: yesScientific 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.

AWTY (are we there yet?): a system for graphical exploration of MCMC convergence in Bayesian phylogenetics

open access: yesBioinform., 2008
UNLABELLED A key element to a successful Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) inference is the programming and run performance of the Markov chain.

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 ...

BEAGLE 3: Improved Performance, Scaling, and Usability for a High-Performance Computing Library for Statistical Phylogenetics

open access: yesSystematic Biology, 2019
BEAGLE is a high-performance likelihood-calculation library for phylogenetic inference. The BEAGLE library defines a simple, but flexible, application programming interface (API), and includes a collection of efficient implementations for calculation ...

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.

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 ...

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
