Integrative taxonomy is central to modern taxonomy and systematic biology, including behavior, niche preference, distribution, morphological analysis, and DNA barcoding. However, decades of use demonstrate that these methods can face challe...
Excluding Loci With Substitution Saturation Improves Inferences From Phylogenomic Data [0.03%]
排除 substitutionsaturation 位点可以改善由系统基因组数据做出的推断

The historical signal in nucleotide sequences becomes eroded over time by substitutions occurring repeatedly at the same sites. This phenomenon, known as substitution saturation, is recognized as one of the primary obstacles to deep-time ph...
A Likelihood-Ratio Test for Lumpability of Phylogenetic Data: Is the Markovian Property of an Evolutionary Process Retained in Recoded DNA? [0.03%]

An unprecedented amount of evidence now illuminates the phylogeny of living mammals and birds on the Tree of Life. We use this tree to measure the phylogenetic value of data typically used in paleontology (bones and teeth) from six data set...

Widely used approaches for extracting phylogenetic information from aligned sets of molecular sequences rely upon probabilistic models of nucleotide substitution or amino-acid replacement. The phylogenetic information that can be extracted ...
Investigating Sources of Conflict in Deep Phylogenomics of Vetigastropod Snails [0.03%]
