Using jackknife to assess the quality of gene order phylogenies
Background: In recent years, gene order data has attracted increasing attention from both biologists and computer scientists as a new type of data for phylogenetic analysis. If ge...

Early eukaryote evolution based on mitochondrial gene order breakpoints
We present a general heuristicfor the median problem for induced breakpoints on genomes with unequal gene content and incorporate this into a routine for estimating optimal gene o...

Topological Rearrangements and Local Search Method for Tandem Duplication Trees
—The problem of reconstructing the duplication history of a set of tandemly repeated sequences was first introduced by Fitch [4]. Many recent studies deal with this problem, show...

Recovering the Tree-Like Trend of Evolution Despite Extensive Lateral Genetic Transfer: A Probabilistic Analysis
Abstract. Lateral gene transfer (LGT) is a common mechanism of nonvertical evolution where genetic material is transferred between two more or less distantly related organisms. It ...
