The phylogeny of a dataset [PDF]
ABSTRACTThe field of evolutionary biology offers many approaches to study the changes that occur between and within generations of species; these methods have recently been adopted by cultural anthropologists, linguists and archaeologists to study the evolution of physical artifacts.

Correlations from structure and phylogeny combine constructively in the inference of protein partners from sequences [PDF]
Inferring protein-protein interactions from sequences is an important task in computational biology. Recent methods based on Direct Coupling Analysis (DCA) or Mutual Information (MI) allow to find interaction partners among paralogs of two protein families. Does successful inference mainly rely on correlations from structural contacts or from phylogeny,

Going nuclear: gene family evolution and vertebrate phylogeny reconciled [PDF]
Gene duplications have been common throughout vertebrate evolution, introducing paralogy and so complicating phylogenctic inference from nuclear genes.

Background Dirofilaria immitis, D. repens and Acanthocheilonema reconditum are the main causative agents of zoonotic canine filariosis. Methods We developed a combined multiplex approach for filaria and Wolbachia detection using the 28S-based pan ...

Human papillomaviruses (HPV) play a key role in promoting human anogenital cancers. Current high-risk HPV screening or diagnosis tests involve cytological or molecular techniques mostly based on qualitative HPV DNA detection.

The phylogeny of Apterygota and on phylogeny in general [PDF]
Abstract From a critical reading of S. M. Manton's “The Arthropoda” (1977) and D.T. Anderson's “Embryology and phylogeny in Annelids and Arthropods” (1973) it is shown that the “functional morphology” of these authors used in phylogenetical sense is old fashioned “Lamarckism” and thus unsuited for phylogenetical considerations.

The deep-sea hydrothermal vent ecosystem is one of the extreme chemoautotrophic environments. Shinkaicaris leurokolos Kikuchi and Hashimoto, 2000, and Alvinocaris longirostris Kikuchi and Ohta, 1995, are typically co-distributed and closely related ...

Does behavior reflect phylogeny in swiftlets (Aves: Apodidae)? A test using cytochrome b mitochondrial DNA sequences [PDF]
Swiftlets are small insectivorous birds, many of which nest in caves and are known to echolocate. Due to a lack of distinguishing morphological characters, the taxonomy of swiftlets is primarily based on the presence or absence of echolocating ability ...
