We consider the following problem: given a forest of gene family trees on a set of genomes, find a first speciation which splits these genomes into two subsets and minimizes the ...
(Motivation) Tree reconciliation is an approach that explains the discrepancies between two evolutionary trees by a number of events such as speciations, duplications, transfers an...

Abstract. Gene trees are leaf-labeled trees inferred from molecular sequences. Due to duplication events arising in genome evolution, gene trees usually have multiple copies of som...
As gene order evolves through a variety of chromosomal rearrangements, conserved segments provide important insight into evolutionary relationships and functional roles of genes. ...

Background: Genomic data provide a wealth of new information for phylogenetic analysis. Yet making use of this data requires phylogenetic methods that can efficiently analyze extr...
