Taxonomic characterisation of Pseudomonas strain L48 and formal proposal of Pseudomonas entomophila sp nov.

An entomopathogenic, Gram-negative bacterium isolated from a female specimen of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster was taxonomically characterised. Strain L48(T) was strictly aerobic, non-fermentative, oxidase and catalase positive, rod-shaped, and moti ...

Reconstruction of Large-Scale Phylogenies

Vaibhav Rajan

The evolutionary relationships between organisms or phylogenies are fundamental to biology. They are invaluable as guiding tools to mine, organize and exploit the enormous amounts of biological data in the post-genomic era. The advent of high-throughput se ...

A Metric for Phylogenetic Trees Based on Matching

Bernard Moret, Yu Lin, Vaibhav Rajan

Comparing two or more phylogenetic trees is a fundamental task in computational biology. The simplest outcome of such a comparison is a pairwise measure of similarity, dissimilarity, or distance. A large number of such measures have been proposed, but so f ...

Bootstrapping phylogenies inferred from rearrangement data

Bernard Moret, Yu Lin, Vaibhav Rajan

Large-scale sequencing of genomes has enabled the inference of phylogenies based on the evolution of genomic architecture, under such events as rearrangements, duplications, and losses. Many evolutionary models and associated algorithms have been designed ...

Identification of Scarabaeus micans Drury and taxonomic notes on Dicronorhina Hope, with description of a new species (Coleoptera, Scarabaeidae, Cetoniinae)

Michele De Palma

The complex of Dicronorhina Hope taxa without cretaceous marks on head and body (“micans group”) is here diagnosed, discussed and revised. The type species of the genus, Scarabaeus micans Drury, 1773, is identified and re-described. D. johnstoni Waterhouse ...

Analysis of Co-evolving Gene Families Using Mutually Exclusive Orthologous Modules

Xiuwei Zhang

Coevolutionary networks can encapsulate information about the dynamics of presence and absence of gene families in organisms. Analysis of such networks should reveal fundamental principles underlying the evolution of cellular systems and the functionality ...

Inferring transcript phylogenies

Bernard Moret, Yann Christinat

Alternative splicing, an unknown mechanism 20 years ago, is now recognized as a major mechanism for proteome and transcriptome diversity, particularly in mammals - some researchers conjecture that up to 90% of human genes are alternatively spliced. Despite ...

Comparing COI and SSU rDNA barcodes for assessing the diversity and phylogenetic relationships of cyphoderiid testate amoebae (Rhizaria: Euglyphida)

Edward Mitchell, Enrique Lara, Thierry Jean Heger

The mitochondrial Cytochrome Oxidase Subunit 1 gene (COI) has been promoted as an ideal “DNA barcode” for animal species and other groups of eukaryotes. However, the utility of the COI marker for species level discrimination and for phylogenetic analyses h ...

Fast and accurate phylogenetic reconstruction from high-resolution whole-genome data and a novel robustness estimator

Bernard Moret, Yu Lin, Vaibhav Rajan

The rapid accumulation of whole-genome data has renewed interest in the study of genomic rearrangements. Comparative genomics, evolutionary biology, and cancer research all require models and algorithms to elucidate the mechanisms, history, and consequence ...
