As expected when making comparisons among species, very high levels of polymorphism were found. Cultivars that grouped together in the principle components analysis also grouped together in the phylogenic analysis. Parts of the phylogenic analysis do not agree with morphology-based phylog

However, these methods become inaccurate when reconstructing phylogenies with more than 30 mutations, or, in some cases, fail to recover a phylogeny altogether.

Abstract In general when a phylogeny is reconstructed from DNA or protein sequence data, it makes use only of the probabilities of obtaining some phylogeny given a collection of data. It is also possible to determine the prior probabilities of different phylogenies. This information can be of use in analyzing the biological causes for the observed divergence of sampled taxa. Unusually “rare” topologies for a given data set may be indicative of different biological forces acting.

In this paper we reconstruct the phylogeny of a clade of pachypleurosaurs (Reptilia: Sauropterygia) occurring in Triassic-age deposits in the Monte San Giorgio region, Switzerland. We also present the phylogeny of this clade as a case study for two paradigms of phylogeny reconstruction: cladistics and phenetic/stratigraphic methods. While this dichotomy is not held rigidly by all workers, its advancement by cladists leads us to retain it initially for rhetorical purposes. We review the philosophical bases of species, species concepts, and speciation, as well as cladograms and phylogenies, befo

Abstract:
Abstract The classic quantitative measure of phylogenetic diversity (PD) has been used to address problems in conservation biology, microbial ecology, and evolutionary biology. PD is the minimum total length of the branches in a phylogeny required to cover a specified set of taxa on the phylogeny. A general goal in the application of PD has been identifying a set of taxa of size k that maximize PD on a given phylogeny; this has been mirrored in active research to develop efficient algorithms for the problem. Other descriptive statistics, such as the minimum PD, average PD, and standard deviati

Abstract:
Despite the progress that has been made in many other aspects of data visualisation, phylogenies are still represented in much the same way as they first were by Darwin. In this brief essay, I give a short review of what I consider to be some recent major advances, and outline a new kind of phylogenetic visualisation. This new graphic, the fibre plot, uses the metaphor of sections through a tree to describe change in a phylogeny. I suggest it is a useful tool in gaining an rapid overview of the timing and scale of diversification in large phylogenies.

The MG approach dominates. Phylogenies created with MG and ECO methods are not congruent. MG conclusions contradict the known facts and patterns of ecology, biogeography, paleontology, etc. We discuss some obvious contradictions and inconsistencies and suggest that real phylogenies of the plague microbe can be constructed only on the basis of the integration of M

Abstract:
In archipelagic environments, the successive emergence and submergence of islands induces changes in area, spatial structure and isolation. Here, we aim to understand how such geo-environmental dynamics, by altering immigration, speciation and extinction over time, may influence phylogenetic patterns. We use a neutral, stochastic, individual-based model which simulates a community evolving in an archipelago where four islands emerge and submerge consecutively. We record each birth, death and immigration event, allowing us to build the complete phylogeny at any time, from which we extract the p

Penstemon is divided into six subgenera occupying all North American habitats including the Arctic tundra, Central American tropical forests, alpine meadows, arid deserts, and temperate grasslands.

In this paper, we propose a high performance computing toolbox implementing efficient statistical methods for the study of phylogenies. This toolbox, which implements logit models and LASSO-type penalties, gives a way to better understand, measure, and compare the impact of each gene on a global phylogeny. As an application, we study the Echinococcus phylogeny, which is often considered as a particularly difficult example. Mitochondrial and nuclear genomes (19 coding sequences) of nine Echinococcus species are considered in order to investigate the molecular phylogeny of this genus. First, we

Abstract:
Abstract Empirical data sets of intraspecific restriction site polymorphism in Drosophila have been gathered in order to test hypotheses derived from coalescent theory. Three main ideas are tested: (1) haplotype frequency in the sample contains information on the topological position of a given haplotype in a cladogram, (2) the frequency of a haplotype is related to the number of mutational connections to other haplotypes in the cladogram and (3) geographic location can be used to infer topological positioning of haplotypes in a cladogram. These relationships can then be used to better estimat

Abstract:
Phylogenetic reconstruction through Bayesian inference is currently widely used. The main advantage of this method is the direct output of posterior probabilities for each clade on the final phylogeny. Thus, it does not require bootstrapping as a measure of uncertainty. Moreover, Bayesian inference is perfectly fit for dating phylogenies through molecular clocks. In this paper, the basics of Bayesian inference applied to phylogenetic reconstruction are described, starting with an explanation of Bayes’ theorem. Then, the use of the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm to sample topologies from the pos

The phylogeny of Labeo is based on allele characters, whereas the phylogeny of the parasites is based on morphometric features. The comparison of host and parasite phylogenies did not correlate completely with predictions made by using Fahrenholz's rule. Parasites encountered on L. coubie and L. senegalensis seem to have evolved in parallel with their host, or by sequential colonizations between these two related hosts. Whatever the
