Effects of discordance between species and gene trees on phylogenetic diversity conservation
Kristina Wicke, Mareike Fischer, Laura Kubatko
Phylogenetic diversity indices such as the Fair Proportion (FP) index are frequently discussed as prioritization criteria in biodiversity conservation. They rank species according…
Tree balance indices: a comprehensive survey
Mareike Fischer, Lina Herbst, Sophie Kersting +2
Tree balance plays an important role in phylogenetics and other research areas, which is why several indices to measure tree balance have been introduced over the years. Neverthele…
Classes of Explicit Phylogenetic Networks and their Biological and Mathematical Significance
Sungsik Kong, Joan Carles Pons, Laura Kubatko +1
The evolutionary relationships among organisms have traditionally been represented using rooted phylogenetic trees. However, due to reticulate processes such as hybridization or la…
On the Complexity of Optimising Variants of Phylogenetic Diversity on Phylogenetic Networks
Magnus Bordewich, Charles Semple, Kristina Wicke
Phylogenetic Diversity (PD) is a prominent quantitative measure of the biodiversity of a collection of present-day species (taxa). This measure is based on the evolutionary distanc…
Phylogenetic Diversity Rankings in the Face of Extinctions: the Robustness of the Fair Proportion Index
Mareike Fischer, Andrew Francis, Kristina Wicke
Planning for the protection of species often involves difficult choices about which species to prioritize, given constrained resources. One way of prioritizing species is to consid…
