GeneTree: comparing gene and species phylogenies using reconciled trees
SUMMARY GeneTree is a program for comparing gene and species trees using reconciled trees. The program can compute the cost of embedding a gene tree within a species tree, visually display the location and number of gene duplications and losses, and search for optimal species trees. AVAILABILITY The program is free and is available at ((http://taxonomy.zoology.gla.ac. uk/rod/genetree/genetree...
متن کاملGene Trees in Species Trees
—Exploration of the relationship between gene trees and their containing species trees leads to consideration of how to reconstruct species trees from gene trees and of the concept of phylogeny as a cloud of gene histories. When gene copies are sampled from various species, the gene tree relating these copies might disagree with the species phylogeny. This discord can arise from horizontal tran...
متن کاملInferring reticulate evolution networks from consensus gene trees
Motivation: A major unresolved problem in phylogeny is to reconstruct the evolutionary history of a set of species when it cannot be modeled by a simple tree. When a reticulation event, such as hybrid speciation or horizontal transfer, occurs, separate regions of a species’ genetic data may evolve along different trees. Our approach uses the gene trees for each region to solve the inverse probl...
متن کاملInferring Optimal Species Trees Under Gene Duplication and Loss
Species tree estimation from multiple markers is complicated by the fact that gene trees can differ from each other (and from the true species tree) due to several biological processes, one of which is gene duplication and loss. Local search heuristics for two NP-hard optimization problems - minimize gene duplications (MGD) and minimize gene duplications and losses (MGDL) - are popular techniqu...
متن کاملAUGIST: inferring species trees while accommodating gene tree uncertainty
SUMMARY AUGIST (accomodating uncertainty in genealogies while inferring species tress) is a new software package for inferring species trees while accommodating uncertainty in gene genealogies. It is written for the Mesquite software system and provides sampling procedures to incorporate uncertainty in gene tree reconstruction while providing confidence estimates for inferred species trees. A...
