Coalescent methods for estimating phylogenetic trees

L Liu, L Yu, L Kubatko, DK Pearl, SV Edwards - Molecular phylogenetics …, 2009 - Elsevier
We review recent models to estimate phylogenetic trees under the multispecies coalescent.
Although the distinction between gene trees and species trees has come to the fore of …

Quartet inference from SNP data under the coalescent model

J Chifman, L Kubatko - Bioinformatics, 2014 - academic.oup.com
… of a large sample of unlinked SNPs, which we can used to construct an estimate of the
matrix F l a t L 1 | L 2 ( P ) ⁠. We call this matrix F l a t L 1 | L 2 ( P ^ ) ⁠, and define this matrix by …

Inconsistency of phylogenetic estimates from concatenated data under coalescence

LS Kubatko, JH Degnan - Systematic biology, 2007 - academic.oup.com
Although multiple gene sequences are becoming increasingly available for molecular
phylogenetic inference, the analysis of such data has largely relied on inference methods …

STEM: species tree estimation using maximum likelihood for gene trees under coalescence

LS Kubatko, BC Carstens, LL Knowles - Bioinformatics, 2009 - academic.oup.com
STEM is a software package written in the C language to obtain maximum likelihood (ML)
estimates for phylogenetic species trees given a sample of gene trees under the coalescent …

Cryptic and abundant marine viruses at the evolutionary origins of Earth's RNA virome

…, R Bundschuh, K Fredrick, LS Kubatko… - Science, 2022 - science.org
Whereas DNA viruses are known to be abundant, diverse, and commonly key ecosystem
players, RNA viruses are insufficiently studied outside disease settings. In this study, we …

[HTML][HTML] Reduced Susceptibility to Praziquantel among Naturally Occurring Kenyan Isolates of Schistosoma mansoni

…, C Cunningham, LS Kubatko… - PLoS neglected …, 2009 - journals.plos.org
Background The near exclusive use of praziquantel (PZQ) for treatment of human schistosomiasis
has raised concerns about the possible emergence of drug-resistant schistosomes. …

Classes of explicit phylogenetic networks and their biological and mathematical significance

S Kong, JC Pons, L Kubatko, K Wicke - Journal of Mathematical Biology, 2022 - Springer
The evolutionary relationships among organisms have traditionally been represented using
rooted phylogenetic trees. However, due to reticulate processes such as hybridization or …
