Branch lengths on Yule trees and the expected loss of phylogenetic diversity
Arne Mooers, Olivier Gascuel, Tanja Stadler +2
Diversification is nested, and early models suggested this could lead to a great deal of evolutionary redundancy in the Tree of Life. This result is based on a particular set of br…
Locating a tree in a phylogenetic network
Leo van Iersel, Charles Semple, Mike Steel
Phylogenetic trees and networks are leaf-labelled graphs that are used to describe evolutionary histories of species. The Tree Containment problem asks whether a given phylogenetic…
Inferring ancestral sequences in taxon-rich phylogenies
Olivier Gascuel, Mike Steel
Statistical consistency in phylogenetics has traditionally referred to the accuracy of estimating phylogenetic parameters for a fixed number of species as we increase the number of…
Consistency of Bayesian inference of resolved phylogenetic trees
Mike Steel
Bayesian inference is now a leading technique for reconstructing phylogenetic trees from aligned sequence data. In this short note, we formally show that the maximum posterior tree…
