Journal ArticleDOI
DIYABC v2.0: a software to make approximate Bayesian computation inferences about population history using single nucleotide polymorphism, DNA sequence and microsatellite data
Jean-Marie Cornuet,Pierre Pudlo,Julien Veyssier,Alexandre Dehne-Garcia,Mathieu Gautier,Raphaël Leblois,Jean-Michel Marin,Arnaud Estoup +7 more
TL;DR: DIYABC v2.0 implements a number of new features and analytical methods, including efficient Bayesian model choice using linear discriminant analysis on summary statistics and the serial launching of multiple post-processing analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Giovanna Morelli,Yajun Song,Yajun Song,Camila J. Mazzoni,Mark Eppinger,Philippe Roumagnac,David M. Wagner,Mirjam Feldkamp,Barica Kusecek,Amy J. Vogler,Yanjun Li,Yujun Cui,Nicholas R.

Petersen,Francois Balloux,Paul Keim,Paul Keim,Thierry Wirth,Jacques Ravel,Ruifu Yang,Elisabeth Carniel,Mark Achtman +25 more
TL;DR: The phylogenetic analysis suggests that Y. pestis evolved in or near China and spread through multiple radiations to Europe, South America, Africa and Southeast Asia, leading to country-specific lineages that can be traced by lineage-specific SNPs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Statistical methods in spatial genetics.
TL;DR: The statistical toolbox available to analyse population genetic data in a spatially explicit framework is reviewed, highlighting not only the potential of various approaches but also methodological pitfalls.
Journal ArticleDOI
Four years of DNA barcoding: Current advances and prospects
Lise Frézal,Raphaël Leblois +1 more
TL;DR: The initially proposed Barcode of life framework has greatly evolved, giving rise to a flexible description of DNA barcoding and a larger range of applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Timescale for Evolution, Population Expansion, and Spatial Spread of an Emerging Clone of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus
Ulrich Nübel,Janina Dordel,Kevin Kurt,Birgit Strommenger,Henrik Westh,Sanjay K. Shukla,Helena Zemlickova,Raphaël Leblois,Thierry Wirth,Thibaut Jombart,Francois Balloux,Wolfgang Witte +11 more
TL;DR: This work investigates an MRSA strain that is highly prevalent in hospitals in Central Europe and reconstructs its recent demographic history and the spatiotemporal dynamics of spread, finding extremely low diversity among European ST225 isolates, indicating that a recent population bottleneck had preceded the expansion of this clone.
