Gene Tree Construction and Correction Using SuperTree and Reconciliation [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE/ACM Transactions on Computational Biology and Bioinformatics, 2018
The supertree problem asking for a tree displaying a set of consistent input trees has been largely considered for the reconstruction of species trees. Here, we rather explore this framework for the sake of reconstructing a gene tree from a set of input gene trees on partial data.

Interspecies DNA acquisition by a naturally competent Acinetobacter baumannii strain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The human pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii possesses high genetic plasticity and frequently acquires antimicrobial resistance genes. Here we investigated the role of natural transformation in these processes. Genomic DNA from different sources, including

A Preliminary List of Horizontally Transferred Genes in Prokaryotes Determined by Tree Reconstruction and Reconciliation

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2017
Genome-wide global detection of genes involved in horizontal gene transfer (HGT) remains an active area of research in medical microbiology and evolutionary genomics.

Reconciliation Revisited: Handling Multiple Optima when Reconciling with Duplication, Transfer, and Loss [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Phylogenetic tree reconciliation is a powerful approach for inferring evolutionary events like gene duplication, horizontal gene transfer, and gene loss, which are fundamental to our understanding of molecular evolution.

Has the Silence Been Broken? Catholic Theological Ethics and Racial Justice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This survey discusses the emerging contours of a distinctive Catholic ethical approach to race, racism, and racial justice. Among its features are the adoption of a more structural and cultural understanding of human sinfulness, engaged intellectual ...

Explanation Through Reward Model Reconciliation using POMDP Tree Search

open access: yes2023 IEEE International Conference on Assured Autonomy (ICAA), 2023
As artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms are increasingly used in mission-critical applications, promoting user-trust of these systems will be essential to their success. Ensuring users understand the models over which algorithms reason promotes user trust.

From pairs of most similar sequences to phylogenetic best matches

open access: yesAlgorithms for Molecular Biology, 2020
Background Many of the commonly used methods for orthology detection start from mutually most similar pairs of genes (reciprocal best hits) as an approximation for evolutionary most closely related pairs of genes (reciprocal best matches).

A General Framework for Gene Tree Correction Based on Duplication-Loss Reconciliation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Due to the key role played by gene trees and species phylogenies in biological studies, it is essential to have as much confidence as possible on the available trees.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Time-consistent reconciliation maps and forbidden time travel

open access: yesAlgorithms for Molecular Biology, 2018
Background In the absence of horizontal gene transfer it is possible to reconstruct the history of gene families from empirically determined orthology relations, which are equivalent to event-labeled gene trees. Knowledge of the event labels considerably
