Evaluation of the relative performance of the subflattenings method for phylogenetic inference

Joshua Stevenson, Barbara Holland, Michael Charleston +1

The algebraic properties of flattenings and subflattenings provide direct methods for identifying edges in the true phylogeny -- and by extension the complete tree -- using pattern…

MAD roots for large trees

David Bryant, Michael Charleston

The Minimal Ancestral Deviation (MAD) method is a recently introduced procedure for estimating the root of a phylogenetic tree, based only on the shape and branch lengths of the tr…

Exploring the consequences of lack of closure in codon models

Michael D. Woodhams, Jeremy G. Sumner, David A. Liberles +2

Models of codon evolution are commonly used to identify positive selection. Positive selection is typically a heterogeneous process, i.e., it acts on some branches of the evolution…

WiSPA: A new approach for dealing with widespread parasitism

Benjamin Drinkwater, Angela Qiao, Michael A. Charleston

Traditionally, studies of coevolving systems have considered cases where a parasite may inhabit only a single host. The case where a parasite may infect many hosts, widespread para…

Phylogenetic estimation with partial likelihood tensors

J. G. Sumner, M. A. Charleston

We present an alternative method for calculating likelihoods in molecular phylogenetics. Our method is based on partial likelihood tensors, which are generalizations of partial lik…
