Molecular Evolution of Visual System Genes in Fishes

TL;DR: This thesis presents a collection of evolutionary studies on two gene families, opsins and crystallins, and focuses on teleost fishes, because teleost visual ecology is exceptionally diverse and because gene duplication is common in this group.

Quaternary climatic cycles promoted (re)colonization and diversification events in Adriatic sand gobies

TL;DR: In this paper, the diversity and evolutionary history of the Adriatic sand gobies (Pomatoschistus and Knipowitschia) were investigated by applying phylogenetic reconstructions, species delimitation tests and molecular dating based on mitochondrial cytochrome b and nuclear rhodopsin 1 genes.

A highly contiguous nuclear genome assembly of the mandarinfish Synchiropus splendidus (Syngnathiformes: Callionymidae).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used linked sequences to create synthetic long reads, producing a highly contiguous genome assembly for the species mandarinfish, which represents one of the most contiguous syngnathiform genome assemblies to date.

Molecular phylogeny and historical biogeography of the Indonesian freshwater fish Rasbora lateristriata species complex (Actinopterygii: Cyprinidae)

TL;DR: Some hidden biodiversity on Rasbora fish in Java is revealed, provided new molecular and morphological evidence to revise the taxonomy of R. lateristriata and R. baliensis is provided, and the molecular phylogeny of this study suggested west-to-east divergences of the R.Lateriata species complex.

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.

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.
