Abstract. A major task in evolutionary biology is to determine the ancestral relationships among the known species, a process generally referred as phylogenetic reconstruction. In ...
Background: Due to recent progress in genome sequencing, more and more data for phylogenetic reconstruction based on rearrangement distances between genomes become available. Howe...

Traditional phylogenetic tree reconstruction is based on point mutations of a single gene. This approach is hardly suitable for genomes whose genes are almost identical and hardly...
Abstract. Gene rearrangements have been used successfully in phylogenetic reconstruction and comparative genomics, but usually under the assumption that all genomes have the same g...
