… A major challenge for incorporating such large amounts of data into inference of species
trees is that conflicting genealogical histories often exist in different genes throughout the …

… In summary, it appears that the best method for species-tree inference (at least among those
currently available) is very much data set dependent and will be determined by the features …

… phylogenetic inference but also roughly reflect the richness of synapomorphies within the data
set defining each group of the consensus tree… 4- to 24-species trees, there is no inference …

… inference of a species phylogeny and the evolutionary processes that acted upon the individual
loci. Although species phylogeny inference … on a single gene sampled across species [ …

… We discuss factors that may cause the gene tree to differ from the species tree, as well as
strategies for estimating species phylogenies in the presence of gene tree conflicts. Genomic …

… information contained in discordant gene trees can be effectively extracted … species tree (ie,
the relative lengths of internal branches) has a significant impact on whether the species tree …

… phylogenies (evolutionary trees) from data on species. This involves inferring an unknown
tree … Phylogenetic inference raises substantive statistical issues, and is truly "a source of novel …

… eluded that DNA sequence data from many different loci that have evolved independently
enable one to infer species trees more accurately. The present approach overcomes the …

… trees embedded in a shared species tree along with the effective population size of both
extant and ancestral species. … improve our ability to infer a single gene phylogeny, but a gene …

… From the analysis of sequence data it is pervasively clear that the evolutionary tree of a
gene family does not necessarily represent the phylogenetic tree of the corresponding species. …
