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 کاملSurprising properties of Maximum Parsimony on phylogenetic networks
Phylogenetic inference aims at reconstructing the evolutionary relationships of different species given some data (e.g. DNA, RNA or proteins). Traditionally, the relationships between species were assumed to be treelike, so the most frequently used phylogenetic inference methods like Maximum Parsimony were originally introduced to reconstruct phylogenetic trees. However, it has been well-known ...
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 کاملInferring phylogenetic networks by the maximum parsimony criterion: a case study.
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) may result in genes whose evolutionary histories disagree with each other, as well as with the species tree. In this case, reconciling the species and gene trees results in a network of relationships, known as the "phylogenetic network" of the set of species. A phylogenetic network that incorporates HGT consists of an underlying species tree that captures vertical...
