Gene genealogy in three related populations: consistency probability between gene and population trees.
A genealogical relationship among genes at a locus (gene tree) sampled from three related populations was examined with special reference to population relatedness (population tree). A phylogenetically informative event in a gene tree constructed from nucleotide differences consists of interspecific coalescences of genes in each of which two genes sampled from different populations are descende...
متن کاملOn Coalescence Analysis Using Genealogy Rooted Trees
DNA sequence data are now being used to study the ancestral history of human population. The existing methods for such coalescence inference use recursion formula to compute the data probabilities. These methods are useful in practical applications, but computationally complicated. Here we first investigate the asymptotic behavior of such inference; results indicate that, broadly, the estimated...
متن کاملOn the Genealogy of Populations: Trees, Branches and Offsprings
Abstract We consider a neutral haploid population whose generations are not overlapping and whose size is large and constantly of N individuals. Any generation is replaced by a new one and any individual has a single parent. We do not choose the stochastic rule which assigns the number of offsprings to any individual since results do not depend on the details of the dynamics, and, as a conseque...
متن کاملQuantitative Analysis of Genealogy Using Digitised Family Trees
Driven by the popularity of television shows such as Who Do You Think You Are? many millions of users have uploaded their family tree to web projects such as WikiTree [1]. Analysis of this corpus enables us to investigate genealogy computationally. The study of heritage in the social sciences has led to an increased understanding of ancestry and descent [2] but such efforts are hampered by diff...
متن کاملGene Trees, Species Trees, and Species Networks
The availability of whole-genome sequence data has provided a rich resource of deep insights into many biological, medical and pharmaceutical problems and applications, and is promising even more. Yet, along with these insights and promises, genomic data have given rise to many challenging problems, mainly due to the quantity and heterogeneity of such data. One of these major challenges is the ...
