Impacts of inference method and data set filtering on phylogenomic resolution in a rapid radiation of ground squirrels (Xerinae: Marmotini)
Phylogenomic data sets are illuminating many areas of the Tree of Life. However, the large
size of these data sets alone may be insufficient to resolve problematic nodes in the most …

[HTML][HTML] A new bat species of the genus Myotis with comments on the phylogenetic placement of M. keaysi and M. pilosatibialis
CA Carrion-Bonilla, JA Cook - Therya, 2020 - scielo.org.mx
Molecular studies of Neotropical Myotis (Chiroptera, Vespertilionidae) in the last decade
have uncovered substantial cryptic diversity. One example is M. keaysi pilosatibialis, which …

Shallow genetic divergence and distinct phenotypic differences between two Andean hummingbirds: Speciation with gene flow?
Ecological speciation can proceed despite genetic interchange when selection counteracts
the homogenizing effects of migration. We tested predictions of this divergence-with-gene …

Inferring incomplete lineage sorting, duplications, transfers and losses with reconciliations
Y Chan, V Ranwez, C Scornavacca - Journal of theoretical biology, 2017 - Elsevier
Gene trees and species trees can be discordant due to several processes. Standard models
of reconciliations consider macro-evolutionary events at the gene level: duplications, losses …

Trait-specific processes of convergence and conservatism shape ecomorphological evolution in ground-dwelling squirrels
Our understanding of mechanisms operating over deep timescales to shape phenotypic
diversity often hinges on linking variation in one or few trait (s) to specific evolutionary …

Ancient divergence driven by geographic isolation and ecological adaptation in forest dependent Sundaland tree squirrels
A surprising amount of hidden phylogenetic diversity exists in the small to medium size, drab
colored squirrels of the genus Sundasciurus. This genus is endemic to Sundaland and the …
