Haplotype inference by maximum parsimony
MOTIVATION Haplotypes have been attracting increasing attention because of their importance in analysis of many fine-scale molecular-genetics data. Since direct sequencing of haplotype via experimental methods is both time-consuming and expensive, haplotype inference methods that infer haplotypes based on genotype samples become attractive alternatives. RESULTS (1) We design and implement an ...
متن کاملParsimony accelerated Maximum Likelihood searches
Phylogenetic search is a key tool used in a variety of biological research endeavours. However, this search problem is known to be computationally difficult, due to the astronomically large search space, making the use of heuristic methods necessary. The performance of heuristic methods for finding Maximum Likelihood (ML) trees can be improved by using parsimony as an initial estimator for ML. ...
متن کاملNon-hereditary Maximum Parsimony trees.
In this paper, we investigate a conjecture by Arndt von Haeseler concerning the Maximum Parsimony method for phylogenetic estimation, which was published by the Newton Institute in Cambridge on a list of open phylogenetic problems in 2007. This conjecture deals with the question whether Maximum Parsimony trees are hereditary. The conjecture suggests that a Maximum Parsimony tree for a particula...
متن کاملPTree: pattern-based, stochastic search for maximum parsimony phylogenies
Phylogenetic reconstruction is vital to analyzing the evolutionary relationship of genes within and across populations of different species. Nowadays, with next generation sequencing technologies producing sets comprising thousands of sequences, robust identification of the tree topology, which is optimal according to standard criteria such as maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood or posterior ...
متن کاملThe Worst Case Complexity of Maximum Parsimony
One of the core classical problems in computational biology is that of constructing the most parsimonious phylogenetic tree interpreting an input set of sequences from the genomes of evolutionarily related organisms. We reexamine the classical maximum parsimony (MP) optimization problem for the general (asymmetric) scoring matrix case, where rooted phylogenies are implied, and analyze the worst...
