A multilocus phylogenetic analysis of Escallonia (Escalloniaceae): diversification in montane South America.

  • F. Zapata

    American journal of botany
  • 2013
It is found that Escallonia is monophyletic, has a remarkable level of geographic and climatic phylogenetic structure, likely originated in the tropical Andes, and has a widespread absence of species exclusivity.

Phylogenetics and diversification of Escallonia (Escalloniaceae)

Molecular phylogenetic analyses revealed that Escallonia is monophyletic, a remarkable level of geographical phylogenetic structure, and a widespread absence of species-level monophyly, consistent with the hypothesis that geography played an important role in the early history ofEscallonia by separating populations, which later diversified rapidly and/or recently in isolation.

Phylogeny and evolution of a highly diversified catfish subfamily: the Loricariinae (Siluriformes, Loricariidae)

A phylogeny was reconstructed using mitochondrial and nuclear data and demonstrated that the Harttiini tribe, as classically defined, formed a paraphyletic assemblage and was restricted to three genera, and two sister subtribes were distinguished, Farlowellina and Loricariina, both displaying complex evolutionary patterns.

Intergeneric phylogenetic relationships in catfishes of the Loricariinae (Siluriformes: Loricariidae), with the description of Fonchiiloricaria nanodon: a new genus and species from Peru.

This species is described as a new genus and new species of Loricariinae: Fonchiiloricaria nanodon, which is diagnosed by usually possessing one to three premaxillary teeth that are greatly reduced.

Back to the roots: Reducing evolutionary rate heterogeneity among sequences gives support for the early morphological hypothesis of the root of Siluriformes (Teleostei: Ostariophysi).

Multilocus molecular phylogeny of the suckermouth armored catfishes (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) with a focus on subfamily Hypostominae.

Phylogeny of the Neotropical Pacman catfish genus Lophiosilurus (Siluriformes: Pseudopimelodidae)

This study aims to test the monophyletic hypothesis of the genera Lophiosilurus and Cephalosilurus with a more comprehensive phylogenetic analysis, including all Ceps species and a representative number of characters.

Molecular phylogeny of the highly diversified catfish subfamily Loricariinae (Siluriformes, Loricariidae) reveals incongruences with morphological classification.

Chromosomal Characterization of Armored Catfish Harttia longipinna (Siluriformes, Loricariidae): First Report of B Chromosomes in the Genus

The cytogenetic data obtained in this study of H. longipinna highlight the karyotypic diversity found within the genus Harttia, and represent the first description of B chromosomes for this genus.

Taxonomic revision and phylogenetic relationships of Dasyloricaria Isbrücker & Nijssen, 1979 (Siluriformes: Loricariidae), with description of a new species

A taxonomic revision and phylogenetic analysis were completed for Dasyloricaria . The genus includes three valid species: D . filamentosa and D . latiura previously included in the genus, and a new…

THE QUANTITATIVE ASSESSMENT OF PHYLOGENETIC CONSTRAINTS IN COMPARATIVE ANALYSES: SEXUAL DIMORPHISM IN BODY WEIGHT AMONG PRIMATES

The separation of phylogenetic from specific effects proposed here also allows phylogenetic factors to be explicitly included in cross‐species comparative analyses of adaptation, which solves a long‐standing problem in evolutionary comparative studies.

METHODS FOR THE ANALYSIS OF COMPARATIVE DATA IN EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY

  • 1991
Methods are presented for the estimation of phylogenywide means of characters, the variance‐covariance structure of the components of taxon‐specific means, and the mean phenotypes of ancestral taxa and it is argued that the covarianceructure of phylogenetic effects provides a description of a macroevolutionary pattern.

Stochastic mapping of morphological characters.

The utility of the method described by Nielsen to the mapping of morphological characters under continuous-time Markov models for mapping characters on trees and for identifying character correlation is demonstrated.

Orthonormal Transform to Decompose the Variance of a Life‐History Trait across a Phylogenetic Tree

A new and generic approach is proposed that expresses the topological properties of the phylogenetic tree via an orthonormal basis, which is further used to decompose the trait variance and propose four complementary test statistics to be computed from orthogram values that help to diagnose both the intensity and the nature of phylogenetic dependence.

The Maximum Likelihood Approach to Reconstructing Ancestral Character States of Discrete Characters on Phylogenies

My approach to reconstructing ancestral states makes use of a Markov model of binary character evolution on phylogenies, which is a related model for investigating rates of gains and losses of characters for which the ancestral states are assumed to be known.

LIKELIHOOD OF ANCESTOR STATES IN ADAPTIVE RADIATION

It is concluded that measures of uncertainty are useful and should always be provided, despite simplistic assumptions about the probabilistic models that underlie them, and if uncertainty is too high, reconstruction should be abandoned.

TESTING FOR PHYLOGENETIC SIGNAL IN COMPARATIVE DATA: BEHAVIORAL TRAITS ARE MORE LABILE

Analysis of variance of log K for all 121 traits indicated that behavioral traits exhibit lower signal than body size, morphological, life-history, or physiological traits, and this work presents new methods for continuous-valued characters that can be implemented with either phylogenetically independent contrasts or generalized least-squares models.

Phylogenetic analysis of the loricariid subfamily Hypoptopomatinae (Pisces: Siluroidei: Loricariidae), with comments on generic diagnoses and geographic distribution

A survey of 55 osteological and myological features provided the basis for a phylogenetic analysis of the genera of the loricariid subfamily Hypoptopomatinae and revealed two additional unresolved polychotomies involving members of the tribe Otothyrini and a clade composed of Hypop topoma, Oxyropsis and Aceslridium.

Adaptation: Statistics and a Null Model for Estimating Phylogenetic Effects

Statistics and a null model for estimating phylogenetic effects in comparative data are proposed and a model-independent measure of autocorrelation (Moran's I) is applied for estimating whether cross-taxonomic trait variation is related to phylogeny.

AN EIGENVECTOR METHOD FOR ESTIMATING PHYLOGENETIC INERTIA

It is concluded that PVR can be a useful alternative to an autoregressive method in comparative data analysis and is more efficient at smaller sample sizes and when level of phylogenetic inertia is low.
