Delimiting species without nuclear monophyly in Madagascar's mouse lemurs.
(PLoS One, 2010-03-31)BACKGROUND: Speciation begins when populations become genetically separated through a substantial reduction in gene flow, and it is at this point that a genetically cohesive set of populations attain the sole property of ... -
Natural hybridization between genera that diverged from each other approximately 60 million years ago.
(Am Nat, 2015-03)A fern from the French Pyrenees-×Cystocarpium roskamianum-is a recently formed intergeneric hybrid between parental lineages that diverged from each other approximately 60 million years ago (mya; 95% highest posterior density: ... -
Primate diversification inferred from phylogenies and fossils.
(Evolution; international journal of organic evolution, 2017-12)Biodiversity arises from the balance between speciation and extinction. Fossils record the origins and disappearance of organisms, and the branching patterns of molecular phylogenies allow estimation of speciation and extinction ... -
Reconciling extreme branch length differences: decoupling time and rate through the evolutionary history of filmy ferns.
(Systematic biology, 2006-06)The rate of molecular evolution is not constant across the Tree of Life. Characterizing rate discrepancies and evaluating the relative roles of time and rate along branches through the past are both critical to ... -
Whole-genome analyses resolve early branches in the tree of life of modern birds.
(Science, 2014-12-12)To better determine the history of modern birds, we performed a genome-scale phylogenetic analysis of 48 species representing all orders of Neoaves using phylogenomic methods created to handle genome-scale data. We recovered ...
