Reconstructible Phylogenetic Networks: Do Not Distinguish the Indistinguishable
Phylogenetic networks represent the evolution of organisms that have undergone reticulate events, such as recombination, hybrid speciation or lateral gene transfer. An important way to interpret a phylogenetic network is in terms of the trees it displays, which represent all the possible histories of the characters carried by the organisms in the network. Interestingly, however, different netwo...
متن کاملTripartitions do not always discriminate phylogenetic networks
Phylogenetic networks are a generalization of phylogenetic trees that allow for the representation of non-treelike evolutionary events, like recombination, hybridization, or lateral gene transfer. In a recent series of papers devoted to the study of reconstructibility of phylogenetic networks, Moret, Nakhleh, Warnow and collaborators introduced the so-called tripartition metric for phylogenetic...
متن کاملPhylogenetic networks do not need to be complex: using fewer reticulations to represent conflicting clusters
UNLABELLED Phylogenetic trees are widely used to display estimates of how groups of species are evolved. Each phylogenetic tree can be seen as a collection of clusters, subgroups of the species that evolved from a common ancestor. When phylogenetic trees are obtained for several datasets (e.g. for different genes), then their clusters are often contradicting. Consequently, the set of all cluste...
متن کاملHarmony Networks Do Not Work
Harmony networks have been proposed as a means by which connectionist models can perform symbolic computation. Indeed, proponents claim that a harmony network can be built that constructs parse trees for strings in a context free language. This paper shows that harmony networks do not work in the following sense: they construct many outputs that are not valid parse trees. In order to show that ...
متن کاملFast and reliable reconstruction of phylogenetic trees with indistinguishable edges
Phylogenetic reconstruction methods attempt to reconstruct a tree describing the evolution of a given set of species using sequences of characters (e.g. DNA) extracted from these species as input. A central goal in this area is to design algorithms which guarantee reliable reconstruction of the tree from short input sequences, assuming common stochastic models of evolution. The fast converging ...
