Inferring the Recent Duplication History of a Gene Cluster
Abstract. Much important evolutionary activity occurs in gene clusters, where a copy of a gene may be free to evolve new functions. Computational methods to extract evolutionary in...

Using jackknife to assess the quality of gene order phylogenies
Background: In recent years, gene order data has attracted increasing attention from both biologists and computer scientists as a new type of data for phylogenetic analysis. If ge...

Consistency of Sequence-Based Gene Clusters
In comparative genomics, various combinatorial models can be used to specify gene clusters — groups of genes that are co-located in a set of genomes. Several approaches have been...

A Consensus Tree Approach for Reconstructing Human Evolutionary History and Detecting Population Substructure
The random accumulation of variations in the human genome over time implicitly encodes a history of how human populations have arisen, dispersed, and intermixed since we emerged as...

Identifiability Issues in Phylogeny-Based Detection of Horizontal Gene Transfer
Prokaryotic organisms share genetic material across species boundaries by means of a process known as horizontal gene transfer (HGT). Detecting this process bears great significanc...
