Likelihood-free inference of phylogenetic tree posterior distributions

Luc Blassel, Noémie Sauvage, Pierre Barrat-Charlaix +3

Phylogenetic inference, the task of reconstructing how related sequences evolved from common ancestors, is a central objective in evolutionary genomics. The current state-of-the-ar…

The expensive son hypothesis

Lucas Invernizzi, Jean-françois Lemaître, Mathieu Douhard

In its initial form, the expensive son hypothesis postulates that sons from male-biased sexually dimorphic species require more food during growth than daughters, which ultimately…

Inner ear morphology in wild versus laboratory house mice

Sabrina Renaud, Léa Amar, Pascale Chevret +4

The semicircular canals of the inner ear are involved in balance and velocity control. Being crucial to ensure efficient mobility, their morphology exhibits an evolutionary conserv…

Quantifying the overall effect of biotic interactions on species distributions along environmental gradients

Marc Ohlmann, Catherine Matias, Giovanni Poggiato +3

Separating environmental effects from those of interspecific interactions on species distributions has always been a central objective of community ecology. Despite years of effort…

Antioxidant capacity is repeatable across years but does not consistently correlate with a marker of peroxidation in a free-living passerine bird

Charlotte Récapet, Mathilde Arrivé, Blandine Doligez +1

Oxidative stress occurs when reactive oxygen species (ROS) exceed antioxidant defences, which can have deleterious effects on cell function, health and survival. Therefore, organis…

Revealing the hidden structure of dynamic ecological networks

Vincent Miele, Catherine Matias

Recent technological advances and long-term data studies provide interaction data that can be modelled through dynamic networks, i.e a sequence of different snapshots of an evolvin…

Genome-scale phylogenetic analysis finds extensive gene transfer among Fungi

Gergely J. Szöllősi, Adrián Arellano Davín, Eric Tannier +2

Although the role of lateral gene transfer is well recognized in the evolution of bacteria, it is generally assumed that it has had less influence among eukaryotes. To explore this…

The inference of gene trees with species trees

Gergely J. Szöllosi, Eric Tannier, Vincent Daubin +1

Molecular phylogeny has focused mainly on improving models for the reconstruction of gene trees based on sequence alignments. Yet, most phylogeneticists seek to reveal the history…

Lateral Gene Transfer, Rearrangement and Reconciliation

Murray Patterson, Gergely J Szöllősi, Vincent Daubin +1

Background. Models of ancestral gene order reconstruction have progressively integrated different evolutionary patterns and processes such as unequal gene content, gene duplication…

Lateral Gene Transfer from the Dead

Gergely J Szöllösi, Eric Tannier, Nicolas Lartillot +1

In phylogenetic studies, the evolution of molecular sequences is assumed to have taken place along the phylogeny traced by the ancestors of extant species. In the presence of later…

A Unifying Model for the Analysis of Phenotypic, Genetic and Geographic Data

Gilles Guillot, Sabrina Renaud, Ronan Ledevin +2

Recognition of evolutionary units (species, populations) requires integrating several kinds of data such as genetic or phenotypic markers or spatial information, in order to get a…
