Target enrichment (such as Hyb-Seq) is a well-established high throughput sequencing method that has been increasingly used for phylogenomic studies. Unfortunately, current widely used pipelines for analysis of target enrichment data do not...
Color Polymorphism is a Driver of Diversification in the Lizard Family Lacertidae [0.03%]
颜色多态性是蜥蜴科动物分化的一个驱动因素
Kinsey M Brock,Emily Jane McTavish,Danielle L Edwards
Kinsey M Brock
Color polymorphism-two or more heritable color phenotypes maintained within a single breeding population-is an extreme type of intraspecific diversity widespread across the tree of life. Color polymorphism is hypothesized to be an engine fo...
Image-Based Automated Species Identification: Can Virtual Data Augmentation Overcome Problems of Insufficient Sampling? [0.03%]
基于图像的自动化物种识别：虚拟数据增强能否克服采样不足的问题？
Morris Klasen,Dirk Ahrens,Jonas Eberle et al.
Morris Klasen et al.
Automated species identification and delimitation is challenging, particularly in rare and thus often scarcely sampled species, which do not allow sufficient discrimination of infraspecific versus interspecific variation. Typical problems a...
Phase Resolution of Heterozygous Sites in Diploid Genomes is Important to Phylogenomic Analysis under the Multispecies Coalescent Model [0.03%]
二倍体基因组中的杂合位点相位解聚对于多物种谱系基因组分析非常重要
Jun Huang,Jeremy Bennett,Tomáš Flouri et al.
Jun Huang et al.
Genome sequencing projects routinely generate haploid consensus sequences from diploid genomes, which are effectively chimeric sequences with the phase at heterozygous sites resolved at random. The impact of phasing errors on phylogenomic a...
Phylogenomic Analysis Reveals Dispersal-Driven Speciation and Divergence with Gene Flow in Lesser Sunda Flying Lizards (Genus Draco) [0.03%]
基于系统基因组学的分析揭示了巽他群岛滑翔蜥蜴属（Draco）扩散驱动的物种形成及渐进分化中的基因流现象
Sean B Reilly,Alexander L Stubbs,Evy Arida et al.
Sean B Reilly et al.
The Lesser Sunda Archipelago offers exceptional potential as a model system for studying the dynamics of dispersal-driven diversification. The geographic proximity of the islands suggests the possibility for successful dispersal, but this i...
Empirical and Methodological Challenges to the Model-Based Inference of Diversification Rates in Extinct Clades [0.03%]
灭绝类群基于模型的分化率推断的实证和方法论挑战

David Černý
Changes in speciation and extinction rates are key to the dynamics of clade diversification, but attempts to infer them from phylogenies of extant species face challenges. Methods capable of synthesizing information from extant and fossil s...
Phytogeographic History of the Tea Family Inferred Through High-Resolution Phylogeny and Fossils [0.03%]
基于高分辨率的系统发育和化石推测茶科植物地理演化历史
Yujing Yan,Charles C Davis,Dimitar Dimitrov et al.
Yujing Yan et al.
The tea family (Theaceae) has a highly unusual amphi-Pacific disjunct distribution: most extant species in the family are restricted to subtropical evergreen broadleaf forests in East Asia, while a handful of species occur exclusively in th...
Novel Tests of the Key Innovation Hypothesis: Adhesive Toepads in Arboreal Lizards [0.03%]
关于关键创新的假说的新检验：树栖蜥蜴的粘附足垫
Aryeh H Miller,James T Stroud
Aryeh H Miller
The evolution of key innovations-unique features that enable a lineage to interact with the environment in a novel way-may drive broad patterns of adaptive diversity. However, traditional tests of the key innovation hypothesis, those which ...
Accelerated Diversification Explains the Exceptional Species Richness of Tropical Characoid Fishes [0.03%]
特热带刺尾鱼物种丰富度异常的原因是多样化的加速
Bruno F Melo,Brian L Sidlauskas,Thomas J Near et al.
Bruno F Melo et al.
The Neotropics harbor the most species-rich freshwater fish fauna on the planet, but the timing of that exceptional diversification remains unclear. Did the Neotropics accumulate species steadily throughout their long history, or attain the...
DNA Barcodes Combined with Multilocus Data of Representative Taxa Can Generate Reliable Higher-Level Phylogenies [0.03%]
结合代表类群的多基因位点数据可使DNA条形码产生可靠的高层次系统树
Gerard Talavera,Vladimir Lukhtanov,Naomi E Pierce et al.
Gerard Talavera et al.
Taxa are frequently labeled incertae sedis when their placement is debated at ranks above the species level, such as their subgeneric, generic, or subtribal placement. This is a pervasive problem in groups with complex systematics due to di...
