Journal ArticleDOI

TNT version 1.5, including a full implementation of phylogenetic morphometrics.

TL;DR: Using algorithms described in this paper, searches for landmark data can be made tens to hundreds of times faster than it was possible before, thus making phylogenetic analysis of landmarks feasible even on standard personal computers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogenetic analysis of 73 060 taxa corroborates major eukaryotic groups

TL;DR: This work shows that tree‐calculation algorithms effectively retrieve phylogenetic history for very large data sets, and at the same time provides strong corroboration for the major eukaryotic lineages long recognized by taxonomists.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bat Systematics in the Light of Unconstrained Analyses of a Comprehensive Molecular Supermatrix

TL;DR: A large-scale phylogeny of bats based on unconstrained searches for a data matrix of 804 non-chimeric, taxonomically updated bat terminals yielded a highly resolved, variously supported phylogeny that recovered the majority of currently recognized clades at all levels of the chiropteran tree.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogenetic morphometrics (I): the use of landmark data in a phylogenetic framework

TL;DR: A method for the direct use of aligned landmark data (2D or 3D coordinates of comparable points) in phylogenetic analysis is described, based on finding, for each of the landmark points, the ancestral positions that minimize the distance between the ancestor/descendant points along the tree.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogenetic Analysis of Araucariaceae: Integrating Molecules, Morphology, and Fossils

TL;DR: A strongly supported and well-resolved phylogeny of Araucariaceae that includes both living species and fossil species for the group is obtained and shows the feasibility and usefulness of phylogenetic analyses that incorporate multiple sources of evidence.
