Partitioned Bayesian analyses, partition choice, and the phylogenetic relationships of scincid lizards.
- M. C. Brandley, A. Schmitz, T. Reeder
- Medicine, Biology
- Systematic biology
- 1 June 2005
Partitioned Bayesian analyses of approximately 2.2 kb of nucleotide sequence data (mtDNA) were used to elucidate phylogenetic relationships among 30 scincid lizard genera. Few partitioned Bayesian… Expand
Molecular systematics of the Eastern Fence Lizard (Sceloporus undulatus): a comparison of Parsimony, Likelihood, and Bayesian approaches.
Phylogenetic analysis of large datasets using complex nucleotide substitution models under a maximum likelihood framework can be computationally infeasible, especially when attempting to infer… Expand
Hylid frog phylogeny and sampling strategies for speciose clades.

- Systematic biology
- 1 October 2005
How should characters and taxa be sampled to resolve efficiently the phylogeny of ancient and highly speciose groups? We addressed this question empirically in the treefrog family Hylidae, which… Expand
Evolutionary and Ecological Causes of the Latitudinal Diversity Gradient in Hylid Frogs: Treefrog Trees Unearth the Roots of High Tropical Diversity

- The American Naturalist
- 21 September 2006
Why are there more species in the tropics than in temperate regions? In recent years, this long‐standing question has been addressed primarily by seeking environmental correlates of diversity. But to… Expand
Phylogenetic Relationships of Whiptail Lizards of the Genus Cnemidophorus (Squamata: Teiidae): A Test of Monophyly, Reevaluation of Karyotypic Evolution, and Review of Hybrid Origins
- T. Reeder, C. J. Cole, Herbert C. Dessauer
- Biology
- 2002
Abstract Phylogenetic relationships of the whiptail lizards of the genus Cnemidophorus are inferred based on a combined analysis of mitochondrial DNA, morphology, and allozymes. Within the Teiini,… Expand
Species delimitation using Bayes factors: simulations and application to the Sceloporus scalaris species group (Squamata: Phrynosomatidae).
- Jared A. Grummer, R. Bryson, T. Reeder
- Medicine, Biology
- Systematic biology
- 1 March 2014
Current molecular methods of species delimitation are limited by the types of species delimitation models and scenarios that can be tested. Bayes factors allow for more flexibility in testing… Expand
Rapid development of multiple nuclear loci for phylogenetic analysis using genomic resources: an example from squamate reptiles.
- T. Townsend, R. E. Alegre, S. Kelley, J. Wiens, T. Reeder
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular phylogenetics and evolution
- 1 April 2008
Recently, as genome-scale data have become available for more organisms, the development of phylogenetic markers from nuclear protein-coding loci (NPCL) has become more tractable. However, new… Expand
WHY DOES A TRAIT EVOLVE MULTIPLE TIMES WITHIN A CLADE? REPEATED EVOLUTION OF SNAKELIKE BODY FORM IN SQUAMATE REPTILES
- J. Wiens, M. C. Brandley, T. Reeder
- Biology, Medicine
- Evolution; international journal of organic…
- 2006
Abstract Why does a trait evolve repeatedly within a clade? When examining the evolution of a trait, evolutionary biologists typically focus on the selective advantages it may confer and the genetic… Expand
Phylogeny of iguanian lizards inferred from 29 nuclear loci, and a comparison of concatenated and species-tree approaches for an ancient, rapid radiation.
- T. Townsend, D. Mulcahy, +4 authors T. Reeder
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular phylogenetics and evolution
- 1 November 2011
Iguanian lizards form a diverse clade whose members have been the focus of many comparative studies of ecology, behavior, and evolution. Despite the importance of phylogeny to such studies,… Expand
