چکیده

SUMMARY RadCon is a Macintosh program for manipulating and analysing phylogenetic trees. The program can determine the Cladistic Information Content of individual trees, the stability of leaves across a set of bootstrap trees, produce the strict basic Reduced Cladistic Consensus profile of a set of trees and convert a set of trees into its matrix representation for supertree construction. AVAILABILITY The program is free and available at http://taxonomy.zoology.gla.ac.uk/ approximately jthorley/radcon/radcon.html.

Cladistic Information, Leaf Stability and Supertree Construction

This thesis is about phylogenetic trees mathematical graph structures which represent the pattern of evolution. More speci cally, it is concerned primarily with cladograms, the simplest type of phylogenetic tree, and the information they provide about the branching pattern of evolution. Although theoretical in orientation a real dataset is analysed in some detail and a user-friendly program pro...

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...

Phylogenetic relationships in Ranunculus species (Ranunculaceae) based on nrDNA ITS and cpDNA trnL-F sequences

The genus Ranunculus L., with a worldwide distribution, is the largest member of the Ranunculaceae. Here, nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence data and chloroplast trnLF sequence data were used to analyze phylogenetic relationships among members of the annual and perennial (Group Praemorsa, Group Rhizomatosa, Group Grumosa and Group non-Grumosa) species of Ranunculus...

A Faster Construction of Phylogenetic Consensus Trees

A consensus tree is a phylogenetic tree that captures the similarity between a set of conflicting phylogenetic trees. The problem of computing a consensus tree is a major step in phylogenetic tree reconstruction. It also finds applications in predicting a species tree from a set of gene trees. This paper focuses on two of the most well-known and widely used consensus tree methods: the greedy co...
