Biogeography and divergence times of genus Macroptilium (Leguminosae)
(Oxford University Press, 2010-10)
Background and aims: Macroptilium is an herbaceous legume genus with eighteen currently accepted species, seven of them with economic importance due to their use as forage, green fertilizer and in medicine. The genus is ...
Generalized divergences from generalized entropies
(Elsevier Science, 2018-11)
Several quantifiers of information, also known as entropies, have been introduced in different contexts and from different motivations. For almost each one of these entropies, a measure of the loss (or gain) of information ...
Ecological divergence and synchronous Pleistocene diversification in the widespread South American butter frog complex
(2022-04-01)
Phylogeographic studies primarily focus on the major role of landscape topography in driving lineage diversification. However, populational phylogeographic breaks may also occur as a result of either niche conservatism or ...
Divergence Times and the Evolutionary Radiation of New World Monkeys (Platyrrhini, Primates): An Analysis of Fossil and Molecular Data
(Public Library Science, 2013-06-27)
The estimation of phylogenetic relationships and divergence times among a group of organisms is a fundamental first step
toward understanding its biological diversification. The time of the most recent or last common ...
Strategies for improving approximate Bayesian computation tests for synchronous diversification
(Biomed Central Ltd, 2017-08-24)
Background: Estimating the variability in isolation times across co-distributed taxon pairs that may have experienced the same allopatric isolating mechanism is a core goal of comparative phylogeography. The use of ...
On the removal of infinities from divergent series
(University of Exeter. School of Education, 2015-07)
The consequences of adopting other definitions of the concepts of sum and convergence of a series are discussed in the light of historical and epistemological contexts. We show that some divergent series appearing in the ...
Covergence and divergence of the iterated biclique graph
(Wiley, 2013-06)
A biclique of a graph G is a maximal induced complete bipartite subgraph of G. The biclique graph of G, denoted by KB(G), is the intersection graph of the bicliques of G. We say that a graph G diverges (or converges or is ...
Phylogeny and divergence times of suckers (Cypriniformes: Catostomidae) inferred from Bayesian total-evidence analyses of molecules, morphology, and fossils
(Peerj Inc, 2018-07-04)
Catostomidae (suckers) is a diverse (76 species) and broadly distributed family of Holarctic freshwater fishes with a rich fossil record and a considerable number (similar to 35%) of threatened and imperiled species. We ...
Genetic divergence in tropical anurans: deeper phylogeographic structure in forest specialists and in topographically complex regions
(Springer, 2015-09-01)
Many tropical organisms show large genetic differences among populations, yet the prevalent drivers of the underlying divergence processes are incompletely understood. We explored the effect of several habitat and natural ...
