TLDR
This study represents the most extensive taxonomic sampling effort to date to collect new molecular characters for phylogenetic analysis of acanthomorph fishes, with new and reliable clades emerging from this study of the acanthomorphic radiation.

Comparison of Arctic and Antarctic teleost haemoglobins: primary structure, function and phytogeny

TL;DR: The evolutionary history of the α and β globins of Antarctic and Arctic haemoglobins was analysed, under the assumption of the molecular-clock hypothesis, as a basis for reconstructing the phylogenetic relationships between species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rhodopsin gene evolution in early teleost fishes.

TL;DR: It is shown that a second copy of the fish-specific intron-less rh1 is present in the genomes of most anguillids, Hiodon alosoides, and several clupeocephalan lineages, and it is suggested that fish rh1 was likely duplicated twice during the early evolutionary history of teleosts.

Multi-scale evolutionary analysis of a high altitude freshwater species flock : diversification of the agassizii complex (Orestias, Cyprinodontidae, Teleostei) across the Andean Altiplano

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define a complexe d'essaims d'especes d'eau d'Orestias, a species unique from the Cichlidae d'Afrique de l’Est.

Brain and sensory organ morphology in Antarctic eelpouts (Perciformes: Zoarcidae: Lycodinae).

TL;DR: The anatomy and histology of the brains, cranial nerves, olfactory apparatus, cephalic lateral lines, taste buds, and retinas of three Antarctic zoarcid species, representing three of the nine genera from this region, are documented.
Journal ArticleDOI

An overview of the phylogenetic relationships of the suborder Trachinoidei (Acanthomorpha : Perciformes)

TL;DR: The phylogenetic relationships of the perciform suborder Trachinoidei are reviewed from an historical perspective and the previously questioned monophyly of the suborder and familial limitations remain unclear.

The neighbor-joining method: a new method for reconstructing phylogenetic trees.

TL;DR: The neighbor-joining method and Sattath and Tversky's method are shown to be generally better than the other methods for reconstructing phylogenetic trees from evolutionary distance data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Confidence limits on phylogenies: an approach using the bootstrap.

TL;DR: The recently‐developed statistical method known as the “bootstrap” can be used to place confidence intervals on phylogenies and shows significant evidence for a group if it is defined by three or more characters.

The CLUSTAL_X windows interface: flexible strategies for multiple sequence alignment aided by quality analysis tools.

TL;DR: ClUSTAL X is a new windows interface for the widely-used progressive multiple sequence alignment program CLUSTAL W, providing an integrated system for performing multiple sequence and profile alignments and analysing the results.

MODELTEST: testing the model of DNA substitution.

TL;DR: The program MODELTEST uses log likelihood scores to establish the model of DNA evolution that best fits the data.
