Novel versus unsupported clades: assessing the qualitative support for clades in MRP supertrees.

Matrix representation with parsimony (MRP) supertree construction has been criticized because the supertree may specify clades that are contradicted by every source tree contributing to it. Such unsupported clades may also occur using other supertree methods; however, their incidence is largely unknown. In this study, I investigated the frequency of unsupported clades in both simulated and empi...

Discriminating supported and unsupported relationships in supertrees using triplets.

A supertree is a phylogeny formed by combining information from disparate phylogenetic trees. Supertree methods have been particularly used for constructing large phylogenies from previously published trees and there is a growing literature using supertree methods for phylogenetic inference in macroevolutionary studies (e.g., Davies et al., 2004; Grotkopp et al, 2004; Salamin and Davies, 2004)....

Performance of flip supertree construction with a heuristic algorithm.

Supertree methods are used to assemble separate phylogenetic trees with shared taxa into larger trees (supertrees) in an effort to construct more comprehensive phylogenetic hypotheses. In spite of much recent interest in supertrees, there are still few methods for supertree construction. The flip supertree problem is an error correction approach that seeks to find a minimum number of changes (f...

Running head: PROPERTIES OF MAJORITY-RULE SUPERTREES Properties of Majority-Rule Supertrees

2 Supertree methods assemble many smaller phylogenetic trees, called input trees, into a larger phylogenetic tree, a supertree, whose taxon set is the union of the taxon sets of the input trees. This synthesis can provide a high-level perspective that is harder to attain from individual trees. A recent example of the use of this approach is the species-level phylogeny of nearly all extant Mamma...
