Assortativity in sympatric speciation and species classification
Joao U. F. Lizarraga, Flavia M. D. Marquitti, Marcus A. M. de Aguiar
We investigate the role of assortative mating in speciation using the sympatric model of Derrida and Higgs. The model explores the idea that genetic differences create incompatibil…
Shannon information criterion for low-high diversity transition in Moran and Voter models
Gabriella D. Franco, Flavia M. D. Marquitti, Lucas D. Fernandes +2
Mutation and drift play opposite roles in genetics. While mutation creates diversity, drift can cause gene variants to disappear, especially when they are rare. In the absence of n…
Measuring Tree Balance with Normalized Tree Area
T. Araújo Lima, Flavia M. D. Marquitti, Marcus A. M. de Aguiar
The study of species organization and their clustering by genetic or phenotypic similarity is carried out with the tools of phylogenetic trees. An important structural property of…
