Robustness of Divergence Time Estimation Despite Gene Tree Estimation Error: A Case Study of Fireflies (Coleoptera: Lampyridae) [0.03%]
基因树估算误差下的分歧时间估算的稳健性——以萤火虫（鞘翅目：灯麟甲科）为例

Sebastian Höhna et al.
Genomic data has become ubiquitous in phylogenomic studies, including divergence time estimation, but provide new challenges. These challenges include, amongst others, biological gene tree discordance, methodological gene tree estimation er...

Biology has become a highly mathematical discipline in which probabilistic models play a central role. As a result, research in the biological sciences is now dependent on computational tools capable of carrying out complex analyses. These ...
Evolution of Large Eyes in Stromboidea (Gastropoda): Impact of Photic Environment and Life History Traits [0.03%]
光环境和生活史特征对Stromboidea科（腹足类）大眼睛进化的影响
Alison R Irwin,Nicholas W Roberts,Ellen E Strong et al.
Alison R Irwin et al.
Eyes within the marine gastropod superfamily Stromboidea range widely in size, from 0.2 to 2.3 mm - the largest eyes known in any gastropod. Despite this interesting variation, the underlying evolutionary pressures remain unknown. Here, we ...
Rapid Evolution of Host Repertoire and Geographic Range in a Young and Diverse Genus of Montane Butterflies [0.03%]
高山蝴蝶一年轻而多样的属的宿主谱系和地理范围的快速演化
Shifang Mo,Yaowei Zhu,Mariana P Braga et al.
Shifang Mo et al.
Evolutionary changes in geographic distribution and larval host plants may promote the rapid diversification of montane insects, but this scenario has been rarely investigated. We studied rapid radiation of the butterfly genus Colias, which...
Complex Hybridization in a Clade of Polytypic Salamanders (Plethodontidae: Desmognathus) Uncovered by Estimating Higher-Level Phylogenetic Networks [0.03%]
估算高级水平的谱系网络揭示了多型火腹鼠属线粒体基因组的复杂杂交现象

R Alexander Pyron et al.
Reticulation between incipient lineages is a common feature of diversification. We examine these phenomena in the Pisgah clade of Desmognathus salamanders from the southern Appalachian Mountains of the eastern United States. The group conta...
Phylogenetic tree instability after taxon addition: empirical frequency, predictability, and consequences for online inference [0.03%]
加 taxa 对系统树稳定性的影响：发生频率、可预测性及对在线推断的后果
Lena Collienne,Mary Barker,Marc A Suchard et al.
Lena Collienne et al.
Online phylogenetic inference methods add sequentially arriving sequences to an inferred phylogeny without the need to recompute the entire tree from scratch. Some online method implementations exist already, but there remains concern that ...
A Phylogenomic Backbone for Acoelomorpha Inferred from Transcriptomic Data [0.03%]

Xenacoelomorpha are mostly microscopic, morphologically simple worms, lacking many structures typical of other bilaterians. Xenacoelomorphs -which include three main groups: Acoela, Nemertodermatida, and Xenoturbella- have been proposed to ...

Time-dependent birth-death sampling models have been used in numerous studies for inferring past evolutionary dynamics in different biological contexts, e.g. speciation and extinction rates in macroevolutionary studies, or effective reprodu...
Complex Models of Sequence Evolution Improve Fit, but not Gene Tree Discordance, for Tetrapod Mitogenomes [0.03%]
复杂的序列进化模型可以提高四足动物线粒体基因组的适应性，但不能解释基因树分歧现象

Benjamin S Toups
Variation in gene tree estimates is widely observed in empirical phylogenomic data and is often assumed to be the result of biological processes. However, a recent study using tetrapod mitochondrial genomes to control for biological sources...
Inference of Phylogenetic Networks from Sequence Data using Composite Likelihood [0.03%]
基于复合似然的序列数据谱系网络推断

Sungsik Kong
While phylogenies have been essential in understanding how species evolve, they do not adequately describe some evolutionary processes. For instance, hybridization, a common phenomenon where interbreeding between two species leads to format...
