Marginal likelihood estimates to compare models using Bayes factors frequently accompany Bayesian phylogenetic inference. Approaches to estimate marginal likelihoods have garnered increased attention over the past decade. In particular, the...

We present a fast and flexible software package--SimPhy--for the simulation of multiple gene families evolving under incomplete lineage sorting, gene duplication and loss, horizontal gene transfer--all three potentially leading to species t...
Testing for Depéret's Rule (Body Size Increase) in Mammals using Combined Extinct and Extant Data [0.03%]
结合灭绝和现存数据检验哺乳动物的Déperet规则(体型增大)

Whether or not evolutionary lineages in general show a tendency to increase in body size has often been discussed. This tendency has been dubbed "Cope's rule" but because Cope never hypothesized it, we suggest renaming it after Depéret, wh...
Inflation of Molecular Clock Rates and Dates: Molecular Phylogenetics, Biogeography, and Diversification of a Global Cicada Radiation from Australasia (Hemiptera: Cicadidae: Cicadettini) [0.03%]
分子钟速率和时间的膨胀：来自澳洲的全球蝉辐射（半翅目：蝉科：Cicadettini）的分子谱系发生、生物地理学和多样化研究

David C Marshall et al.
Dated phylogenetic trees are important for studying mechanisms of diversification, and molecular clocks are important tools for studies of organisms lacking good fossil records. However, studies have begun to identify problems in molecular ...

Bayesian total-evidence dating involves the simultaneous analysis of morphological data from the fossil record and morphological and sequence data from recent organisms, and it accommodates the uncertainty in the placement of fossils while ...

The comparison of mathematical models that represent alternative hypotheses about the tempo and mode of evolutionary change is a common approach for assessing the evolutionary processes underlying phenotypic diversification. However, becaus...
Testing Convergence Versus History: Convergence Dominates Phenotypic Evolution for over 150 Million Years in Frogs [0.03%]
趋同战胜了历史：在1.5亿多年的进化史上，两栖动物表型演化中的趋同占主导地位

Striking evolutionary convergence can lead to similar sets of species in different locations, such as in cichlid fishes and Anolis lizards, and suggests that evolution can be repeatable and predictable across clades. Yet, most examples of c...

Phylogenetic analyses have lent support to the concept of lineage selection: that biological lineages can have heritable traits that influence their capacity to persist and diversify, and thereby affect their representation in biodiversity....
Rumbling Orchids: How To Assess Divergent Evolution Between Chloroplast Endosymbionts and the Nuclear Host [0.03%]
摇曳的兰花：如何评估叶绿体内共生生物与细胞核宿主之间的分歧进化

Oscar Alejandro Pérez-Escobar
Phylogenetic relationships inferred from multilocus organellar and nuclear DNA data are often difficult to resolve because of evolutionary conflicts among gene trees. However, conflicting or "outlier" associations (i.e., linked pairs of "op...
Processes Driving the Adaptive Radiation of a Tropical Tree (Diospyros, Ebenaceae) in New Caledonia, a Biodiversity Hotspot [0.03%]
驱动生物多样性热点新喀里多尼亚岛上一棵热带树(Diospyros，Ebenaceae)适应辐射的过程

Ovidiu Paun et al.
Due to its special geological history, the New Caledonian Archipelago is a mosaic of soil types, and in combination with climatic conditions this results in a heterogeneous environment across relatively small distances. A group of over 20 e...
