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 …

Clustering systems of phylogenetic networks

M Hellmuth, D Schaller, PF Stadler - Theory in Biosciences, 2023 - Springer
Rooted acyclic graphs appear naturally when the phylogenetic relationship of a set X of taxa
involves not only speciations but also recombination, horizontal transfer, or hybridization that …

Identifiability of species network topologies from genomic sequences using the logDet distance

ES Allman, H Baños, JA Rhodes - Journal of mathematical biology, 2022 - Springer
Inference of network-like evolutionary relationships between species from genomic data
must address the interwoven signals from both gene flow and incomplete lineage sorting …

Identifying species network features from gene tree quartets under the coalescent model

H Baños - Bulletin of mathematical biology, 2019 - Springer
We show that many topological features of level-1 species networks are identifiable from the
distribution of the gene tree quartets under the network multi-species coalescent model. In …

Counting phylogenetic networks of level 1 and 2

M Bouvel, P Gambette, M Mansouri - Journal of mathematical biology, 2020 - Springer
Phylogenetic networks generalize phylogenetic trees, and have been introduced in order to
describe evolution in the case of transfer of genetic material between coexisting species …

Statistical learning with phylogenetic network invariants

T Barton, E Gross, C Long, J Rusinko - arxiv preprint arxiv:2211.11919, 2022 - arxiv.org
Phylogenetic networks provide a means of describing the evolutionary history of sets of
species believed to have undergone hybridization or gene flow during their evolution. The …

Trinets encode orchard phylogenetic networks

C Semple, G Toft - journal of Mathematical Biology, 2021 - Springer
Rooted triples, rooted binary phylogenetic trees on three leaves, are sufficient to encode
rooted binary phylogenetic trees. That is, if T and T′ are rooted binary phylogenetic X-trees …

[HTML][HTML] From modular decomposition trees to level-1 networks: Pseudo-cographs, polar-cats and prime polar-cats

M Hellmuth, GE Scholz - Discrete Applied Mathematics, 2022 - Elsevier
The modular decomposition of a graph G is a natural construction to capture key features of
G in terms of a labeled tree (T, t) whose vertices are labeled as “series”(1),“parallel”(0) or …

Trilonet: piecing together small networks to reconstruct reticulate evolutionary histories

J Oldman, T Wu, L Van Iersel… - Molecular biology and …, 2016 - academic.oup.com
Phylogenetic networks are a generalization of evolutionary trees that can be used to
represent reticulate processes such as hybridization and recombination. Here, we introduce …

A divide-and-conquer method for scalable phylogenetic network inference from multilocus data

J Zhu, X Liu, HA Ogilvie, LK Nakhleh - Bioinformatics, 2019 - academic.oup.com
Motivation Reticulate evolutionary histories, such as those arising in the presence of
hybridization, are best modeled as phylogenetic networks. Recently developed methods …
