Taxonomic Quality of Species Descriptions Varies over Time and with the Number of Authors, but Unevenly among Parasitic Taxa [0.03%]
物种描述随时间和作者数量而变化，但寄生生物种类的变化不均匀
Robert Poulin,Bronwen Presswell

Although concerns are being raised about a potential shortage of taxonomists and systematists, recent analyses suggest instead that the number of researchers involved in taxonomic descriptions is higher than ever and that the average number...
Phylogenetic Stability, Tree Shape, and Character Compatibility: A Case Study Using Early Tetrapods [0.03%]
基于早期四足动物的系统发育稳定性、树形和特征兼容性研究案例分析
Massimo Bernardi,Kenneth D Angielczyk,Jonathan S Mitchell et al.
Massimo Bernardi et al.
Phylogenetic tree shape varies as the evolutionary processes affecting a clade change over time. In this study, we examined an empirical phylogeny of fossil tetrapods during several time intervals, and studied how temporal constraints manif...
Species-Level Para- and Polyphyly in DNA Barcode Gene Trees: Strong Operational Bias in European Lepidoptera [0.03%]
欧洲鳞翅目DNA条形码基因树中操作偏差导致的种水平假同源与多泛滥现象
Marko Mutanen,Sami M Kivelä,Rutger A Vos et al.
Marko Mutanen et al.
The proliferation of DNA data is revolutionizing all fields of systematic research. DNA barcode sequences, now available for millions of specimens and several hundred thousand species, are increasingly used in algorithmic species delimitati...
Sequence Capture versus Restriction Site Associated DNA Sequencing for Shallow Systematics [0.03%]
浅层分类学中的序列捕获与限制性位点相关DNA测序方法的比较
Michael G Harvey,Brian Tilston Smith,Travis C Glenn et al.
Michael G Harvey et al.
Sequence capture and restriction site associated DNA sequencing (RAD-Seq) are two genomic enrichment strategies for applying next-generation sequencing technologies to systematics studies. At shallow timescales, such as within species, RAD-...
Lost in the Other Half: Improving Accuracy in Geometric Morphometric Analyses of One Side of Bilaterally Symmetric Structures [0.03%]
迷失在另一半中：改善对 bilateral structure 中一侧的几何形态计量分析的准确性
Andrea Cardini
Andrea Cardini
Systematists and evolutionary biologists have widely adopted Procrustes-based geometric morphometrics for measuring size and shape in biology. Many structures, and in fact most animals, are bilaterally symmetric with an internal plane of sy...
RevBayes: Bayesian Phylogenetic Inference Using Graphical Models and an Interactive Model-Specification Language [0.03%]
RevBayes:基于图形模型和交互式模型指定语言的贝叶斯系统发生推断
Sebastian Höhna,Michael J Landis,Tracy A Heath et al.
Sebastian Höhna et al.
Programs for Bayesian inference of phylogeny currently implement a unique and fixed suite of models. Consequently, users of these software packages are simultaneously forced to use a number of programs for a given study, while also lacking th...

Evolutionary events co-occurring along phylogenetic trees usually point to complex adaptive phenomena, sometimes implicating epistasis. While a number of methods have been developed to account for co-occurrence of events on the same interna...
Exploring Phylogenetic Relationships within Myriapoda and the Effects of Matrix Composition and Occupancy on Phylogenomic Reconstruction [0.03%]
探讨Myriapoda门内的系统发育关系及矩阵组成和占位对磷脂发育重建的影响
Rosa Fernández,Gregory D Edgecombe,Gonzalo Giribet

Myriapods, including the diverse and familiar centipedes and millipedes, are one of the dominant terrestrial arthropod groups. Although molecular evidence has shown that Myriapoda is monophyletic, its internal phylogeny remains contentious ...
Measuring Stratigraphic Congruence Across Trees, Higher Taxa, and Time [0.03%]
度量树、高阶分类阶元和时间跨维度的地层学一致性
Anne O&#x;Connor,Matthew A Wills
Anne O&#x;Connor
The congruence between the order of cladistic branching and the first appearance dates of fossil lineages can be quantified using a variety of indices. Good matching is a prerequisite for the accurate time calibration of trees, while the di...
