Understanding and representing uncertainty is crucial in academic research because it enables studies to build on the conclusions of previous studies, leading to robust advances in a particular field. Here, we evaluate the nature of uncerta...

Species distribution data are fundamental to the understanding of biodiversity patterns and processes. Yet, such data are strongly affected by sampling biases, mostly related to site accessibility. The understanding of these biases is there...

Hybridization may often be an important source of adaptive variation, but the extent and long-term impacts of introgression have seldom been evaluated in the phylogenetic context of a radiation. Hares (Lepus) represent a widespread mammalia...
A Codon Model for Associating Phenotypic Traits with Altered Selective Patterns of Sequence Evolution [0.03%]

Detecting the signature of selection in coding sequences and associating it with shifts in phenotypic states can unveil genes underlying complex traits. Of the various signatures of selection exhibited at the molecular level, changes in the...
The Perfect Storm: Gene Tree Estimation Error, Incomplete Lineage Sorting, and Ancient Gene Flow Explain the Most Recalcitrant Ancient Angiosperm Clade, Malpighiales [0.03%]
基因树估算错误、不完全谱系分选和古老基因流解释了最难以解析的被子植物分支——杨梅目的完美风暴

Incomplete lineage sorting (ILS), the interaction between coalescence and speciation, can generate incongruence between gene trees and species trees, as can gene duplication (D), transfer (T), and loss (L). These processes are usually model...
Do Meristic Characters Used in Phylogenetic Analysis Evolve in an Ordered Manner? [0.03%]
用于系统发育分析的计数特征是否按一定顺序演化?

The use of ordered characters in phylogenetic analysis has been inconsistent throughout the history of phylogenetic inference. It has become more widespread in recent years, and some have advocated that all characters representing continuou...

Next-generation-sequencing genotype callers are commonly used in studies to call variants from newly sequenced species. However, due to the current availability of genomic resources, it is still common practice to use only one reference gen...
The Phylogeny and Evolution of the Flashiest of the Armored Harvestmen (Arachnida: Opiliones) [0.03%]
最闪亮的铠甲鼠妇(蛛形纲:栉足目)的系统发育和进化

Ligia R Benavides
Gonyleptoidea, largely restricted to the Neotropics, constitutes the most diverse superfamily of Opiliones and includes the largest and flashiest representatives of this arachnid order. However, the relationships among its main lineages (fa...
Parallel ddRAD and Genome Skimming Analyses Reveal a Radiative and Reticulate Evolutionary History of the Temperate Bamboos [0.03%]

Rapid evolutionary radiations are among the most challenging phylogenetic problems, wherein different types of data (e.g., morphology and molecular) or genetic markers (e.g., nuclear and organelle) often yield inconsistent results. The trib...
