Combinability of phylogenies and bootstrap confidence envelopes.

Recently, Lutzoni (1997) used a test described by Rodrigo et al. (1993; hereinafter referred to as the RKB3 test) to compare phylogenies constructed by using ribosomal RNA gene sequences (rDNA) and intergenic transcribed spacer sequences (ITS) from a group of related basidiomycete species. Lut-zoni discussed the relationships amongst the species, but he also commented extensively on the RKB3 te...

Evolution of viruses and cells: do we need a fourth domain of life to explain the origin of eukaryotes?

The recent discovery of diverse very large viruses, such as the mimivirus, has fostered a profusion of hypotheses positing that these viruses define a new domain of life together with the three cellular ones (Archaea, Bacteria and Eucarya). It has also been speculated that they have played a key role in the origin of eukaryotes as donors of important genes or even as the structures at the origi...

Quantitative 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...

Exact hypothesis testing and confidence interval for mean of the exponential distribution under Type-I progressive hybrid censoring

 ‎Censored samples are discussed in experiments of life-testing; i.e‎. ‎whenever the experimenter does not observe the failure times of all units placed on a life test‎. ‎In recent years‎, ‎inference based on censored sampling is considered‎, ‎so that about the parameters of various distributions such as ‎normal‎, ‎exponential‎, ‎gamma‎, ‎Rayleigh‎, ‎Weibull‎, ‎log normal‎, ‎inverse Gaussian‎, ...
