Phylogenetic trees based on gene content
UNLABELLED Comparing gene content between species can be a useful approach for reconstructing phylogenetic trees. In this paper, we derive a maximum-likelihood estimation of evolutionary distance between species under a simple model of gene genesis and gene loss. Using simulated data on a biological tree with 107 taxa (and on a number of randomly generated trees), we compare the accuracy of tre...
متن کاملSelecting optimal minimum spanning trees that share a topological correspondence with phylogenetic trees
Choi et al. (2011) introduced a minimum spanning tree (MST)-based method called CLGrouping, for constructing tree-structured probabilistic graphical models, a statistical framework that is commonly used for inferring phylogenetic trees. While CLGrouping works correctly if there is a unique MST, we observe an indeterminacy in the method in the case that there are multiple MSTs. In this work we r...
متن کاملQuantitative Comparison of Tree Pairs Resulted from Gene and Protein Phylogenetic Trees for Sulfite Reductase Flavoprotein Alpha-Component and 5S rRNA and Taxonomic Trees in Selected Bacterial Species
Introduction: FAD is the cofactor of FAD-FR protein family. Sulfite reductase flavoprotein alpha-component is one of the main enzymes of this family. Based on applications of this enzyme in biotechnology and industry, it was chosen as the subject of evolutionary studies in 19 specific species. Method: Gene and protein sequences of sulfite reductase flavoprotein alpha-component, 5S rRNA sequence...
متن کاملGenotyping schemes for polyomavirus BK, using gene-specific phylogenetic trees and single nucleotide polymorphism analysis.
BK virus (BKV) genotyping has been historically based on nucleotides 1744 to 1812 in the VP1 gene. We reevaluated this practice by making BKV whole-genome and gene-specific phylogenetic trees as well as performing single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis of 162 sequences available in the public domain. It was found that currently known BKV subtypes and subgroups can no longer be reliably d...
متن کاملPhylogenetic trees
We introduce the package PhylogeneticTrees for Macaulay2 which allows users to compute phylogenetic invariants for group-based tree models. We provide some background information on phylogenetic algebraic geometry and show how the package PhylogeneticTrees can be used to calculate a generating set for a phylogenetic ideal as well as a lower bound for its dimension. Finally, we show how methods ...
