A Fitness Distance Correlation Measure for Evolutionary Trees
Phylogenetics is concerned with inferring the genealogical relationships between a group of organisms (or taxa), and this relationship is usually expressed as an evolutionary tree....

Fast estimation of the difference between two PAM/JTT evolutionary distances in triplets of homologous sequences
Background: The estimation of the difference between two evolutionary distances within a triplet of homologs is a common operation that is used for example to determine which of t...

Measures of Diversity for Populations and Distances Between Individuals with Highly Reorganizable Genomes
In this paper we address the problem of defining a measure of diversity for a population of individuals whose genome can be subjected to major reorganizations during the evolution...

Approximating the true evolutionary distance between two genomes
As more and more genomes are sequenced, evolutionary biologists are becoming increasingly interested in evolution at the level of whole genomes, in scenarios in which the genome e...

New Techniques for Generation and Analysis of Evolutionary Trees
We introduce new distance measures for the construction and analysis of phylogenies, focusing on thioredoxin-fold proteins. Our distance measures for tree construction are based o...
