Algorithm of OMA for large-scale orthology inference

ACJ Roth, GH Gonnet, C Dessimoz - BMC bioinformatics, 2008 - Springer
Background OMA is a project that aims to identify orthologs within publicly available,
complete genomes. With 657 genomes analyzed to date, OMA is one of the largest projects …

Support patterns from different outgroups provide a strong phylogenetic signal

A Schneider, GM Cannarozzi - Molecular biology and evolution, 2009 - academic.oup.com
It is known that the accuracy of phylogenetic reconstruction decreases when more distant
outgroups are used. We quantify this phenomenon with a novel scoring method, the …

Covariance of maximum likelihood evolutionary distances between sequences aligned pairwise

C Dessimoz, M Gil - BMC evolutionary biology, 2008 - Springer
Background The estimation of a distance between two biological sequences is a
fundamental process in molecular evolution. It is usually performed by maximum likelihood …

Codon-based Models of Evolution and Applications in Mammalian Phylogeny

A Schneider - 2009 - research-collection.ethz.ch
Many applications and analyses in computational biology require a model to describe the
evolutionary process at the level of DNA or protein sequences. Typically a Markov model is …

Fast and accurate estimation of the covariance between pairwise maximum likelihood distances

M Gil - PeerJ, 2014 - peerj.com
Pairwise evolutionary distances are a model-based summary statistic for a set of molecular
sequences. They represent the leaf-to-leaf path lengths of the underlying phylogenetic tree …

Estimating the difference of means with imputation of the missing observations

CN Bouza, DC Melgar - Investigación Operacional, 2009 - dialnet.unirioja.es
We consider the use of a finite population model for estimating the difference of the means of
two variables under a mechanism for missing observations. The information available on the …

Evaluating sequence alignments and phylogenies: new methods and large-scale comparisons

M Gil - 2010 - research-collection.ethz.ch
Phylogenetic trees are one of the most important representations of the evolutionary
relationship between genomic sequences. Alternatively, their relatedness can be expressed …
