Detecting lateral gene transfers by statistical reconciliation of phylogenetic forests
Background: To understand the evolutionary role of Lateral Gene Transfer (LGT), accurate methods are needed to identify transferred genes and infer their timing of acquisition. Ph...

Phylogenetic distribution of DNA-binding transcription factors in bacteria and archaea
We have addressed the distribution and abundance of 75 transcription factor (TF) families in complete genomes from 90 different bacterial and archaeal species. We found that the p...

GIGA: a simple, efficient algorithm for gene tree inference in the genomic age
Background: Phylogenetic relationships between genes are not only of theoretical interest: they enable us to learn about human genes through the experimental work on their relativ...

A Chemical-Distance-Based Test for Positive Darwinian Selection
There are very few instances in which positive Darwinian selection has been convincingly demonstrated at the molecular level. In this study, we present a novel test for detecting p...

t2prhd: a tool to study the patterns of repeat evolution
Background: The models developed to characterize the evolution of multigene families (such as the birth-and-death and the concerted models) have also been applied on the level of ...
