We introduce and evaluate TreeDT, a novel gene mapping method which is based on discovering and assessing tree-like patterns in genetic marker data. Gene mapping aims at discoveri...
: There are several models for the evolutionary process forming a species tree. We examine the Birth-and-Death model (BDM), the Proportional-to-Distinguishable Arrangements (PDA) m...
Prokaryotic organisms share genetic material across species boundaries by means of a process known as horizontal gene transfer (HGT). This process has great significance for unde...

Abstract. This paper presents an algorithm to detect lateral gene transfer (LGT) on the basis of pairwise evolutionary distances. The prediction is made from a likelihood ratio der...
