Perfect Taxon Sampling and Fixing Taxon Traceability: Introducing a Class of Phylogenetically Decisive Collections of Taxon Sets. [PDF]
Bull Math BiolAbstract Phylogenetically decisive collections of taxon sets have the property that if trees are chosen for each of their elements, as long as these trees are compatible, the resulting supertree is unique. This means that as long as the trees describing the phylogenetic relationships of the (input) species sets are compatible, they can only ...

Proceedings of the 2nd International Workshop on Open Data, 2013 In this paper, we describe the development of the first ontology module for observation of pest attacks in crop production. We applied the NeOn methodology and more particularly the ontology engineering method based on Ontology Design Pattern.

On the Unnecessary and Misleading Taxon “Cetartiodactyla”
Journal of Mammalian Evolution, 2021 The name “Cetartiodactyla” was proposed in 1997 to reflect the molecular data that suggested that Cetacea is closely related to Artiodactyla. Since then, that taxon has spread in popularity, even outside the scientific literature. However, the implica- tions of the name are confusing, because Cetacea and Artiodactyla are not sister-taxa.

Polyhedral geometry of Phylogenetic Rogue Taxa [PDF]
, 2010 It is well known among phylogeneticists that adding an extra taxon (e.g. species) to a data set can alter the structure of the optimal phylogenetic tree in surprising ways. However, little is known about this "rogue taxon" effect.

Vicia incisa (Fabaceae). Taxonomical and chorological notes [PDF]
, 2017 The classification of the Vicia sativa aggregate is unsatisfactory. Concerning the taxonomic value and choice of rank of some of these taxa, there are disagreements among botanists.

Taxon Influence Index: Assessing Taxon-Induced Incongruities in Phylogenetic Inference [PDF]
Systematic Biology, 2012 Understanding the evolutionary history of species is at the core of molecular evolution and is done using several inference methods. The critical issue is to quantify the uncertainty of the inference. The posterior probabilities in Bayesian phylogenetic inference and the bootstrap values in frequentist approaches measure the variability of the ...

Taxon cycles in Neotropical mangroves
Plants, 2022 AbstractThe concept of taxon cycle involves successive range expansions and contractions over time through which a species can indefinitely maintain its core distribution. Otherwise, it becomes extinct. Taxon cycles have been defined mostly for tropical island faunas, examples from continental areas are scarce and similar case studies for plants remain
