Lower Bounds for Maximum Parsimony with Gene Order Data
Abstract. In this paper, we study lower bound techniques for branchand-bound algorithms for maximum parsimony, with a focus on gene order data. We give a simple O(n3 ) time dynamic...

On the Structure of Syntenic Distance
This paper examines some of the rich structure of the syntenic distance model of evolutionary distance, introduced by Ferretti et al. (1996). The syntenic distance between two gen...
