Tanglegrams for rooted phylogenetic trees and networks
MOTIVATION In systematic biology, one is often faced with the task of comparing different phylogenetic trees, in particular in multi-gene analysis or cospeciation studies. One approach is to use a tanglegram in which two rooted phylogenetic trees are drawn opposite each other, using auxiliary lines to connect matching taxa. There is an increasing interest in using rooted phylogenetic networks t...
متن کاملNodal distances for rooted phylogenetic trees
Dissimilarity measures for (possibly weighted) phylogenetic trees based on the comparison of their vectors of path lengths between pairs of taxa, have been present in the systematics literature since the early seventies. For rooted phylogenetic trees, however, these vectors can only separate non-weighted binary trees, and therefore these dissimilarity measures are metrics only on this class of ...
متن کاملFast computation of all maximum acyclic agreement forests for two rooted binary phylogenetic trees
Evolutionary scenarios displaying reticulation events are often represented by rooted phylogenetic networks. Due to biological reasons, those events occur very rarely, and, thus, networks containing a minimum number of such events, so-called minimum hybridization networks, are of particular interest for research. Moreover, to study reticulate evolution, biologist need not only a subset but all ...
متن کاملCompatibility of unrooted phylogenetic trees is FPT
A collection of T1, T2, . . . , Tk of unrooted, leaf labelled (phylogenetic) trees, all with different leaf sets, is said to be compatible if there exists a tree T such that each tree Ti can be obtained from T by deleting leaves and contracting edges. Determining compatibility is NP-hard, and the fastest algorithm to date has worst case complexity of around (nk) time, n being the number of leav...
متن کاملConstructing phylogenetic trees efficiently using compatibility criteria
The Character Compatibility Problem is a classical problem in computational biology concerned with constructing phylogenetic trees of minimum possible evolution from qualitative character sets. This problem arose in the 1970s, and until recently the only cases for which efficient algorithms were found were for binary (i.e. twostate) characters and for two characters at a time, while the complex...
