Polyphyly and gene flow between non-sibling Heliconius species
... The data presented here also illustrate the difficulties of reconstructing phylogeny of closely related species from DNA sequences. For this study, finished sequence was obtained from 30 individuals, and from 43–45 ...

Efficient Strategies for Calculating Blockwise Likelihoods Under the Coalescent
... Both unknown phase and root can be incorporated via a simple relabeling of branches. In generating the GF, we have labeled branches and corresponding v variables by the tips (leaf nodes) they are connected to. Crucially, ...

Allelic Genealogies in Sporophytic Self-Incompatibility Systems in Plants
