An Annealed Sequential Monte Carlo Method for Bayesian Phylogenetics [0.03%]
用于贝叶斯系统发育学的并行马尔可夫链蒙特卡罗方法

We describe an "embarrassingly parallel" method for Bayesian phylogenetic inference, annealed Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC), based on recent advances in the SMC literature such as adaptive determination of annealing parameters. The algorithm...
Monophyly, Taxon Sampling, and the Nature of Ranks in the Classification of Orb-Weaving Spiders (Araneae: Araneoidea) [0.03%]
单系性、抽样和品级的本质：在皿形网蛛的分类中（蜘蛛目：园蛛超下目）

Robert J Kallal et al.
We address some of the taxonomic and classification changes proposed by Kuntner et al. (2019) in a comparative study on the evolution of sexual size dimorphism in nephiline spiders. Their proposal to recircumscribe araneids and to rank the ...

We describe the use of the Fréchet mean and variance in the Billera-Holmes-Vogtmann (BHV) treespace to summarize and explore the diversity of a set of phylogenetic trees. We show that the Fréchet mean is comparable to other summary method...
Metapopulation Vicariance, Age of Island Taxa and Dispersal: A Case Study Using the Pacific Plant Genus Planchonella (Sapotaceae) [0.03%]
基于岛屿植物类群年龄、分布和扩散研究的元种群异质性——以太平洋葡萄科Planchonella属为例
Ulf Swenson,J Christopher Havran,Jérôme Munzinger et al.
Ulf Swenson et al.
Oceanic islands originate from volcanism or tectonic activity without connections to continental landmasses, are colonized by organisms, and eventually vanish due to erosion and subsidence. Colonization of oceanic islands occurs through lon...
Sexual Dichromatism Drives Diversification within a Major Radiation of African Amphibians [0.03%]
性二型色斑推动非洲两栖动物主要谱系分化发展

Daniel M Portik et al.
Theory predicts that sexually dimorphic traits under strong sexual selection, particularly those involved with intersexual signaling, can accelerate speciation and produce bursts of diversification. Sexual dichromatism (sexual dimorphism in...
The Relative Importance of Modeling Site Pattern Heterogeneity Versus Partition-Wise Heterotachy in Phylogenomic Inference [0.03%]
在系统基因组推断中建模位点模式异质性的重要性相对于分区异时性建模的重要性

Large taxa-rich genome-scale data sets are often necessary for resolving ancient phylogenetic relationships. But accurate phylogenetic inference requires that they are analyzed with realistic models that account for the heterogeneity in sub...
Biogeographical Network Analysis of Cretaceous Terrestrial Tetrapods: A Phylogeny-Based Approach [0.03%]
基于系统发育的白垩纪陆生四足动物生物地理网络分析

Network methods are widely used to represent and analyze biogeography. It is difficult, however, to convert occurrence data of fossil vertebrates to a biogeographical network, as most species were known from a single locality. A new method ...
Whole-Genome Analyses Resolve the Phylogeny of Flightless Birds (Palaeognathae) in the Presence of an Empirical Anomaly Zone [0.03%]
全基因组分析解决了飞行鸟类（平胸目）的系统发育关系中的实证异常带问题
Alison Cloutier,Timothy B Sackton,Phil Grayson et al.
Alison Cloutier et al.
Palaeognathae represent one of the two basal lineages in modern birds, and comprise the volant (flighted) tinamous and the flightless ratites. Resolving palaeognath phylogenetic relationships has historically proved difficult, and short int...
Swapping Birth and Death: Symmetries and Transformations in Phylodynamic Models [0.03%]
生死互换：系谱动力学模型中的对称性和变换性
Tanja Stadler,Mike Steel
Tanja Stadler
Stochastic birth-death models provide the foundation for studying and simulating evolutionary trees in phylodynamics. A curious feature of such models is that they exhibit fundamental symmetries when the birth and death rates are interchang...
Dense Geographic and Genomic Sampling Reveals Paraphyly and a Cryptic Lineage in a Classic Sibling Species Complex [0.03%]
密集的地理和基因组取样揭示了一个经典的类姐妹物种复合体中的旁系同源关系和一个隐秘谱系
Ethan Linck,Kevin Epperly,Paul Van Els et al.
Ethan Linck et al.
Incomplete or geographically biased sampling poses significant problems for research in phylogeography, population genetics, phylogenetics, and species delimitation. Despite the power of using genome-wide genetic markers in systematics and ...
