Ancestral state reconstruction is a fundamental challenge in evolutionary biology, requiring methods that can capture complex morphological changes while accounting for phylogenetic relationships. Current approaches are based on linear assu...
Dietary specialization drives adaptation, convergence, and integration across the cranial and appendicular skeleton in Waterfowl (Anseriformes) [0.03%]
饮食专性化驱动雁形目鸟类头骨和附肢骨骼的适应、趋同及整合

Convergence provides strong evidence for adaptation, reflecting similar responses to recurring selection pressures. Waterfowl (order Anseriformes) have repeatedly evolved morphotypes putatively correlated with foraging ecology (e.g., dabble...

Modeling discrete character evolution in a Markovian framework has become common practice in phylogenetic comparative methods. The increasing size and complexity of these models reflects a trend of analyses to include more taxa and more dis...
How ecological opportunity drives asymmetric phenotypic diversity in the gartersnakes, watersnakes, and allies (Natricidae:Thamnophiini) [0.03%]
生态机会如何驱动了粗鳞蛇、水蛇及其近缘物种（Natricidae：Thamnophiini）的不对称表型多样性
Leroy P Núñez,Frank T Burbrink
Leroy P Núñez
Ecological opportunity promotes rapid evolution as species fill unoccupied niche space and is a common explanation for asymmetric diversity within taxonomic groups. Most studies on ecological opportunity focus on isolated areas such as isla...
A covarion model for phylogenetic estimation using discrete morphological datasets [0.03%]
基于离散形态数据集的系统发育估计的共变离子模型

The rate of evolution of a single morphological character is not homogeneous across the phylogeny and this rate heterogeneity varies between morphological characters. However, traditional models of morphological character evolution often as...
Multiple Dating Methods and Insights from the Fossil Record Reveal that Bark Beetles Predate the Angiosperm Terrestrial Revolution [0.03%]
多种测定方法和化石记录的见解表明， bark beetle起源于被子植物陆地革命之前

Jules Ferreira et al.
Estimating the age of a given clade is not trivial. Most dating studies rely on a node dating approach, which is highly sensitive to fossil placement uncertainties. A perfect example of that can be found in bark beetles (Curculionidae: Scol...
Integrating fossils samples with heterogeneous diversification rates: a combined Multi-Type Fossilized Birth-Death model [0.03%]
结合异质分化率的化石样本：多类型化石化生灭模型的联合分析

Birth-death models are widely used to describe the diversification process which leads to the observed species and phylogenies. When integrated into Bayesian phylogenetic inference, birth-death models allow the joint inference of the phylog...
Comparing partition and mixture models with akaike information criteria [0.03%]
利用.akaike信息标准比较数据的分区模型和混合模型
Edward Susko,Robert Lanfear,Andrew J Roger
Edward Susko
Sophisticated phylogenetic models often include mixture and/or partition model components. It was recently noted that information criteria tend to favour partition models over mixture models even in some cases where the latter are misspecif...
Phylogenetic Accuracy Under Non-Stationary and Non-Homogeneous Conditions: A Simulation Study [0.03%]
非平稳性和非齐次条件下的系统发生准确性：一项仿真研究

Phylogenetic inference typically assumes that the data has evolved under Stationary, Reversible and Homogeneous (SRH) conditions. Many empirical and simulation studies have shown that assuming SRH conditions can lead to significant errors i...
Synergizing Bayesian and Heuristic Approaches: D-BPP Uncovers Ghost Introgression in Panthera and Thuja [0.03%]
结合贝叶斯和启发式方法：D-BPP在豹属和黄杉中发现幽灵杂交痕迹
Yang Yang,Xiao-Xu Pang,Ya-Mei Ding et al.
Yang Yang et al.
Hybridization involving extinct or unsampled ("ghost") lineages profoundly influences species' evolutionary histories, but detecting such introgression remains methodologically challenging. We introduce D-BPP, a framework that integrates th...
