Phylogenetic comparative methods (PCMs), especially ones based on linear models, have played a central role in understanding species' trait evolution. These methods, however, usually assume that phylogenetic trees are known without error or...

The integrity of science requires that the process be based on sound experimental design and objective methodology. Strategies that increase reproducibility and transparency in science protect this integrity by reducing conscious and uncons...
How Well Can We Estimate Diversity Dynamics for Clades in Diversity Decline? [0.03%]
我们如何估计多样性衰退类群的多样性动态?

Gustavo Burin et al.
The fossil record shows that the vast majority of all species that ever existed are extinct and that most lineages go through an expansion and decline in diversity. However, macroevolutionary analyses based upon molecular phylogenies have d...
A Universal Probe Set for Targeted Sequencing of 353 Nuclear Genes from Any Flowering Plant Designed Using k-Medoids Clustering [0.03%]
一种用于从任何开花植物中对353个核基因进行靶向测序的通用探针集,使用k-中值聚类设计而成
Matthew G Johnson,Lisa Pokorny,Steven Dodsworth et al.
Matthew G Johnson et al.
Sequencing of target-enriched libraries is an efficient and cost-effective method for obtaining DNA sequence data from hundreds of nuclear loci for phylogeny reconstruction. Much of the cost of developing targeted sequencing approaches is a...

Morphological data play a key role in the inference of biological relationships and evolutionary history and are essential for the interpretation of the fossil record. The hierarchical interdependence of many morphological characters, howev...
Restriction-Site-Associated DNA Sequencing Reveals a Cryptic Viburnum Species on the North American Coastal Plain [0.03%]
基于限制性位点相关DNA测序在北美大西洋沿岸发现一种隐存京桃叶荚蒾种

Species are the starting point for most studies of ecology and evolution, but the proper circumscription of species can be extremely difficult in morphologically variable lineages, and there are still few convincing examples of molecularly ...
Resolving Deep Nodes in an Ancient Radiation of Neotropical Fishes in the Presence of Conflicting Signals from Incomplete Lineage Sorting [0.03%]
不完全谱系分拣情况下一种古特化新热带鱼类的深分支解析以解决冲突信号问题
Fernando Alda,Victor A Tagliacollo,Maxwell J Bernt et al.
Fernando Alda et al.
Resolving patterns of ancient and rapid diversifications is one of the most challenging tasks in evolutionary biology. These difficulties arise from confusing phylogenetic signals that are associated with the interplay of incomplete lineage...
Golden Orbweavers Ignore Biological Rules: Phylogenomic and Comparative Analyses Unravel a Complex Evolution of Sexual Size Dimorphism [0.03%]
金 orbweaver 忽视生物学规则:系谱组学和比较分析揭示了性尺寸二态性的复杂进化
Matjaž Kuntner,Chris A Hamilton,Ren-Chung Cheng et al.
Matjaž Kuntner et al.
Instances of sexual size dimorphism (SSD) provide the context for rigorous tests of biological rules of size evolution, such as Cope's rule (phyletic size increase), Rensch's rule (allometric patterns of male and female size), as well as ma...
Reconstructing the Evolution of Giant Extinct Kangaroos: Comparing the Utility of DNA, Morphology, and Total Evidence [0.03%]
巨猿袋鼠的进化重建:DNA、形态和综合证据方法的比较研究
Manuela Cascini,Kieren J Mitchell,Alan Cooper et al.
Manuela Cascini et al.
Combined "total evidence" analysis of molecular and morphological data offers the opportunity to objectively merge fossils into the tree of life, and challenges the primacy of solely DNA based phylogenetic and dating inference, even among m...

A recent pair of articles published in the journal Evolution presented a test for assessing the validity of hierarchical macroevolutionary models. The premise of the test is to compare numerical point estimates of parameters from two levels...
