The Complexity of Inferring a Minimally Resolved Phylogenetic Supertree
A recursive algorithm by Aho, Sagiv, Szymanski, and Ullman [1] forms the basis for many modern rooted supertree methods employed in Phylogenetics. However, as observed by Bryant [4], the tree output by the algorithm of Aho et al. is not always minimal; there may exist other trees which contain fewer nodes yet are still consistent with the input. In this paper, we prove strong polynomial-time in...
متن کاملA phylogenetic supertree of the bats (Mammalia: Chiroptera).
We present the first estimate of the phylogenetic relationships among all 916 extant and nine recently extinct species of bats Mammalia: Chiroptera), a group that accounts for almost one-quarter of extant mammalian diversity. This phylogeny was derived by combining 105 estimates of bat phylogenetic relationships published since 1970 using the supertree construction technique of Matrix Represent...

متن کاملA molecular phylogenetic analysis of the "true thrushes" (Aves: Turdinae).
The true thrushes (Passeriformes: Muscicapidae, subfamily Turdinae) are a speciose and widespread avian lineage presumed to be of Old World origin. Phylogenetic relationships within this assemblage were investigated using mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence data that included the cytochrome b and ND2 genes. Our ingroup sampling included 54 species representing 17 of 20 putative turdine genera. P...
