Consider two phylogenetic networks N and N′ of size n. The tripartition-based distance finds the proportion of tripartitions which are not shared by N and N′ . This distance i...
Background: As one of the most widely used parsimony methods for ancestral reconstruction, the Fitch method minimizes the total number of hypothetical substitutions along all bran...

Multiple sequence alignment is the most fundamental task in bioinformatics and computational biology. In this paper, we present a new algorithm to conduct multiple sequences align...
Background: In plant mitochondria, the post-transcriptional RNA editing process converts C to U at a number of specific sites of the mRNA sequence and usually restores phylogeneti...
Abstract. We present a fast converging method for distance-based phylogenetic inference, which is novel in two respects. First, it is the only method (to our knowledge) to guarante...
