STRIDE: Species Tree Root Inference from Gene Duplication Events. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Biol Evol, 2017
The correct interpretation of a phylogenetic tree is dependent on it being correctly rooted. A gene duplication event at the base of a clade of species is synapamorphic, and thus excludes the root of the species tree from that clade. We present STRIDE, a

ecceTERA: comprehensive gene tree-species tree reconciliation using parsimony [PDF]

open access: yesBioinformatics, 2016
Abstract Summary: A gene tree-species tree reconciliation explains the evolution of a gene tree within the species tree given a model of gene-family evolution. We describe ecceTERA, a program that implements a generic parsimony reconciliation algorithm, which accounts for gene duplication, loss and transfer (DTL) as well as speciation ...

Neighbourhood interactions drive overyielding in mixed-species tree communities. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun, 2018
Theory suggests that plant interactions at the neighbourhood scale play a fundamental role in regulating biodiversity–productivity relationships (BPRs) in tree communities.

The performance of coalescent-based species tree estimation methods under models of missing data. [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2018
Estimation of species trees from multiple genes is complicated by processes such as incomplete lineage sorting, gene duplication and loss, and horizontal gene transfer, that result in gene trees that differ from each other and from the species phylogeny.

SPECIES TREE INFERENCE FROM GENOMIC SEQUENCES USING THE LOG-DET DISTANCE. [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM J Appl Algebr Geom, 2019
The log-det distance between two aligned DNA sequences was introduced as a tool for statistically consistent inference of a gene tree under simple non-mixture models of sequence evolution.

Minimum variance rooting of phylogenetic trees and implications for species tree reconstruction. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS One, 2017
Phylogenetic trees inferred using commonly-used models of sequence evolution are unrooted, but the root position matters both for interpretation and downstream applications.

Evaluation of silver fir provenances at 51 years of age in provenance trials in the Předhoří Hrubý Jeseník and Nízký Jeseník Mts. regions, Czech Republic

open access: yesJournal of Forest Science, 2023
In 2021, measurements were done at two international provenance research trials for silver fir originating from the same series of experiments. The investigation was carried out in the location Vítkov and Úsov, where both trials were established ...

ASTRAL-Pro 2: ultrafast species tree reconstruction from multi-copy gene family trees

open access: yesBioinform., 2022
MOTIVATION Species tree inference from multi-copy gene trees has long been a challenge in phylogenomics. The recent method ASTRAL-Pro has made large strides by enabling multi-copy gene family trees as input and has been quickly adopted.

SpeciesRax: A Tool for Maximum Likelihood Species Tree Inference from Gene Family Trees under Duplication, Transfer, and Loss

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2021
Species tree inference from gene family trees is becoming increasingly popular because it can account for discordance between the species tree and the corresponding gene family trees.

wQFM: highly accurate genome-scale species tree estimation from weighted quartets

open access: yesBioinform., 2021
MOTIVATION Species tree estimation from genes sampled from throughout the whole genome is complicated due to the gene tree-species tree discordance. Incomplete lineage sorting (ILS) is one of the most frequent causes for this discordance, where alleles ...
