Fine Scale Phylogeography of Urban Western European Hedgehog Erinaceus europaeus in South‐East England [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionPreserving genetic diversity within species and populations is an important conservation goal, yet observed genetic structure can be influenced by both contemporary and historical processes. Here, we investigate the phylogeography of the western European

Conservation and Phylogeography of Plants: From the Mediterranean to the Rest of the World
Diversity, 2022 During the last decades, phylogeography has transformed the ways to analyze and understand plant diversity and biogeography. The repeated and increasingly detailed articles made from DNA data with phylogeographical procedures and algorithms have ...

Phylogeographic triangulation: using predator-prey-parasite interactions to infer population history from partial genetic information. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Phylogeographic studies, which infer population history and dispersal movements from intra-specific spatial genetic variation, require expensive and time-consuming analyses that are not always feasible, especially in the case of rare or endangered ...

Phylogeography by diffusion on a sphere: whole world phylogeography [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Background Techniques for reconstructing geographical history along a phylogeny can answer many questions of interest about the geographical origins of species. Bayesian models based on the assumption that taxa move through a diffusion process have found

Phylogeography and Phylogenetic Evolution in Tibetan Sheep Based on MT-CYB Sequences
Animals, 2020 To date, molecular genetics and population studies in Tibetan sheep (Ovis aries) have been limited, and little is known about the phylogenetic evolution and phylogeography of Tibetan sheep populations.

Practice-oriented controversies and borrowed epistemic credibility in current evolutionary biology: phylogeography as a case study [PDF]
, 2013 Although there is increasing recognition that theory and practice in science are intimately intertwined, philosophy of science perspectives on scientific controversies have been historically focused on theory rather than practice.
