Ancestral sequence reconstruction with phangorn

For parsimony analysis of the edge length represent the observed number of changes. Reconstructiong ancestral states therefore defines also the edge lengths of a tree. However there can exist several equally parsimonious reconstructions or states can be ambiguous and therefore edge length can differ. ”MPR” reconstructs the ancestral states for each (internal) node as if the tree would be rooted...

Ancestral Sequence Reconstruction with Maximum Parsimony.

One of the main aims in phylogenetics is the estimation of ancestral sequences based on present-day data like, for instance, DNA alignments. One way to estimate the data of the last common ancestor of a given set of species is to first reconstruct a phylogenetic tree with some tree inference method and then to use some method of ancestral state inference based on that tree. One of the best-know...
