A comparison of ancestral state reconstruction methods for quantitative characters.
Choosing an ancestral state reconstruction method among the alternatives available for quantitative characters may be puzzling. We present here a comparison of seven of them, namely the maximum likelihood, restricted maximum likelihood, generalized least squares under Brownian, Brownian-with-trend and Ornstein-Uhlenbeck models, phylogenetic independent contrasts and squared parsimony methods. A...
متن کاملRapid maximum likelihood ancestral state reconstruction of continuous characters: A rerooting‐free algorithm
Ancestral state reconstruction is a method used to study the evolutionary trajectories of quantitative characters on phylogenies. Although efficient methods for univariate ancestral state reconstruction under a Brownian motion model have been described for at least 25 years, to date no generalization has been described to allow more complex evolutionary models, such as multivariate trait evolut...
متن کاملTree Reconstruction from Multi-State Characters
In evolutionary biology, a character is a function χ from a set X of present-day species into a finite set of states. Suppose the species in X have evolved according to a bifurcating tree T . Biologists would like to use characters to infer this tree. Assume that χ is the result of an evolutionary process on T that has not involved reverse or parallel transitions, such characters are called hom...
متن کاملAncestral Reconstruction
Ancestral reconstruction is the extrapolation back in time from measured characteristics of individuals (or populations) to their common ancestors. It is an important application of phylogenetics, the reconstruction and study of the evolutionary relationships among individuals, populations, or species to their ancestors. In the context of biology, ancestral reconstruction can be used to recover...
متن کاملHandAlign: Bayesian multiple sequence alignment, phylogeny and ancestral reconstruction
UNLABELLED We describe handalign, a software package for Bayesian reconstruction of phylogenetic history. The underlying model of sequence evolution describes indels and substitutions. Alignments, trees and model parameters are all treated as jointly dependent random variables and sampled via Metropolis-Hastings Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), enabling systematic statistical parameter inferenc...
