Detecting Highways of Horizontal Gene Transfer
Abstract. In a horizontal gene transfer (HGT) event a gene is transferred between two species that do not share an ancestor-descendant relationship. Typically, no more than a few g...

Recovering a phylogenetic tree using pairwise closure operations
A fundamental task in evolutionary biology is the amalgamation of a collection P of leaf-labelled trees into a single parent tree. A desirable feature of any such amalgamation is ...

Parallel implementation of a quartet-based algorithm for phylogenetic analysis
This paper describes a parallel implementation of our recently developed algorithm for phylogenetic analysis on the IBM BlueGene/L cluster [15]. This algorithm constructs evolutio...

Case Study: Visualizing Sets of Evolutionary Trees
We describe a visualization tool which allows a biologist to explore a large set of hypothetical evolutionary trees. Interacting with such a dataset allows the biologist to identi...
