Success of Phylogenetic Methods in the Four-Taxon Case
The success of 16 methods of phylogenetic inference was examined using consistency and simulation analysis. Success—the frequency with which a tree-making method correctly ident...
Bayesian Phylogenetic Inference via Markov Chain Monte Carlo Methods
Summary. We derive a Markov chain to sample from the posterior distribution for a phylogenetic tree given sequence information from the corresponding set of organisms, a stochas...

Mitochondrial portraits of human populations using median networks.
Abstract Analysis of variation in the hypervariable region of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has emerged as an important tool for studying human evolution and migration. However, att...
Bootstrap confidence levels for phylogenetic trees
Evolutionary trees are often estimated from DNA or RNA sequence data. How much confidence should we have in the estimated trees? In 1985, Felsenstein [Felsenstein, J. (1985) Evo...
