Scoredist: A simple and robust protein sequence distance estimator
Background: Distance-based methods are popular for reconstructing evolutionary trees thanks to their speed and generality. A number of methods exist for estimating distances from ...

Estimating true evolutionary distances under rearrangements, duplications, and losses
Background: The rapidly increasing availability of whole-genome sequences has enabled the study of whole-genome evolution. Evolutionary mechanisms based on genome rearrangements h...
