… gene trees and species trees. We then measured the distribution of phylogenetic signal
across sites and genes … Gene trees inferred with plastid data often disagree with species …

… Our results suggest that, on a per-locus basis, the difference between a gene tree and
the dominant topological signal in genomic data depends more on the adequacy of the …

… among duplicated genes. This is the case of ribosomal RNA genes, where gene trees
that … closest relatives, despite the ancient origin of this gene family (Dover and Coen, 1981; …

… Although in this study we describe variation in mating signals … to influence our measures
of signal variation and any other … signal-transmission effects contribute negligible variation to …

… The main idea is that one can obtain a more representative phylogeny by averaging out
the confounding signals in single gene trees. It has been argued that the gene repertoire is a …

… When X exceeds this critical value, Ho will be rejected at the 0.05 significance level in favor
of the alternative hypothesis; that is, we will have detected the signal from the species tree. …

… the gene trees at different loci because of the variation in the length of T 1 . Are differences
large enough to be confused with the signal … split from one or two gene trees, such as that for …

… in the distribution of gene trees not only extracts phylogenetic signal, but modeling the
relationship between the gene trees embedded in a species tree also reveals the biological …

… gene tree variation is a major unresolved question. Using mitochondrial genomes to control
for biological causes of gene tree variation, we estimate the extent of gene tree … gene trees is …

… However, examination of the signal in gene trees showed that concatenation masked the
considerable incongruence present in several internodes. Thus, while analyses of …
