Orchid mycorrhizal fungi (OMF) associations in the Orchidaceae are thought to have been a major driver of diversification in the family. In the terrestrial orchid tribe Diurideae, it has long been hypothesised that OMF symbiont associations...
A Double-edged Sword: Evolutionary Novelty along Deep-time Diversity Oscillation in An Iconic Group of Predatory Insects (Neuroptera: Mantispoidea) [0.03%]
一把双刃剑:一类标志性肉食性昆虫( Neuroptera :Mantispoids)在深时多样性振荡中的进化创新
Hongyu Li,De Zhuo,Bo Wang et al.
Hongyu Li et al.
Evolutionary novelties are commonly identified as drivers of lineage diversification, with key innovations potentially triggering adaptive radiation. Nevertheless, testing hypotheses on the role of evolutionary novelties in promoting divers...
Are Modern Cryptic Species Detectable in the Fossil Record? A Case Study on Agamid Lizards [0.03%]
现代隐存种能在化石记录中被发现吗?一种(agamid lizards)的案例研究
Till Ramm,Jaimi A Gray,Christy A Hipsley et al.
Till Ramm et al.
Comparisons of extant and extinct biodiversity are often dependent on objective morphology-based identifications of fossils and assume a well-established and comparable taxonomy for both fossil and modern taxa. However, since many modern (c...
Bayesian Selection of Relaxed-clock Models: Distinguishing Between Independent and Autocorrelated Rates [0.03%]

In Bayesian molecular-clock dating of species divergences, rate models are used to construct the prior on the molecular evolutionary rates for branches in the phylogeny, with independent and autocorrelated rate models being commonly used. T...
Testing relationships between multiple regional features and biogeographic processes of speciation, extinction, and dispersal [0.03%]
检验区域特征与生物地理过程中的物种形成、灭绝和扩散之间的关系

Sarah K Swiston
The spatial and environmental features of regions where clades are evolving are expected to impact biogeographic processes such as speciation, extinction, and dispersal. Any number of regional features (such as elevation, distance, area, et...
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,Sarah E Lower,Pablo Duchen et al.
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...

Fábio K Mendes et al.
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%]
