Target enrichment of ultraconserved elements from arthropods provides a genomic perspective on relationships among Hymenoptera
Brant C. Faircloth, Michael G. Branstetter, Noor D. White +1
Gaining a genomic perspective on phylogeny requires the collection of data from many putatively independent loci collected across the genome. Among insects, an increasingly common…
Sequence Capture Versus Restriction Site Associated DNA Sequencing for Phylogeography
Michael G. Harvey, Brian Tilston Smith, Travis C. Glenn +2
Genomic datasets generated with massively parallel sequencing methods have the potential to propel systematics in new and exciting directions, but selecting appropriate markers and…
Target capture and massively parallel sequencing of ultraconserved elements (UCEs) for comparative studies at shallow evolutionary time scales
Brian Tilston Smith, Michael G. Harvey, Brant C. Faircloth +2
Comparative genetic studies of non-model organisms are transforming rapidly due to major advances in sequencing technology. A limiting factor in these studies has been the identifi…
A phylogeny of birds based on over 1,500 loci collected by target enrichment and high-throughput sequencing
John E. McCormack, Michael G. Harvey, Brant C. Faircloth +3
Evolutionary relationships among birds in Neoaves, the clade comprising the vast majority of avian diversity, have vexed systematists due to the ancient, rapid radiation of numerou…
A phylogenomic perspective on the radiation of ray-finned fishes based upon targeted sequencing of ultraconserved elements
Michael E. Alfaro, Brant C. Faircloth, Laurie Sorenson +1
Ray-finned fishes constitute the dominant radiation of vertebrates with over 30,000 species. Although molecular phylogenetics has begun to disentangle major evolutionary relationsh…
TAPIR enables high-throughput estimation and comparison of phylogenetic informativeness using locus-specific substitution models
Brant C. Faircloth, Jonathan Chang, Michael E. Alfaro
Massively parallel DNA sequencing techniques are rapidly changing the dynamics of phylogenetic study design by exponentially increasing the discovery of phylogenetically useful loc…
