Using Avida to Test the Effects of Natural Selection on Phylogenetic Reconstruction Methods
Phylogenetic trees group organisms by their ancestral relationships. There are a number of distinct algorithms used to reconstruct these trees from molecular sequence data, but dif...

Prokaryote Phylogeny without Sequence Alignment: From Avoidance Signature to Composition Distance
A new and essentially simple method to reconstruct prokaryotic phylogenetic trees from their complete genome data without using sequence alignment is proposed. It is based on the ...

RAIphy: Phylogenetic classification of metagenomics samples using iterative refinement of relative abundance index profiles
Background: Computational analysis of metagenomes requires the taxonomical assignment of the genome contigs assembled from DNA reads of environmental samples. Because of the diver...
