Abstract—Because of the advent of high-throughput sequencing and the consequent reduction in cost of sequencing, many organisms have been completely sequenced and most of their g...
Background: Due to recent progress in genome sequencing, more and more data for phylogenetic reconstruction based on rearrangement distances between genomes become available. Howe...

— Rearrangements of genes and other syntenic blocks have become a topic of intensive study by phylogenists, comparative genomicists, and computational biologists: they are a feat...
Phylogenies—the evolutionary histories of groups of organisms—are one of the most widely used tools throughout the life sciences, as well as objects of research within systema...
