Integrating Sequence and Topology for Efficient and Accurate Detection of Horizontal Gene Transfer
Abstract. One phylogeny-based approach to horizontal gene transfer (HGT) detection entails comparing the topology of a gene tree to that of the species tree, and using their differ...

Algorithms for Exploring the Space of Gene Tree/Species Tree Reconciliations
We describe algorithms to explore the space of all possible reconciliations between a gene tree and a species tree. We propose an algorithm for generating a random reconciliation, ...

Duplication Mechanism and Disruptions in Flanking Regions Influence the Fate of Mammalian Gene Duplicates
Here we identify duplicated genes in five mammalian genomes and classify these duplicates based on the mechanisms by which they were generated. Retrotransposition accounts for at l...
