Bayesian inference in Phylogenetics phylogeny generates a posterior distribution for a parameter, composed of a phylogenetic tree and a model of evolution, based on the prior for that parameter and the likelihood of the data, generated by a multiple alignment. The Bayesian approach has become more popular due to advances in computational machinery, especially, Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms. Bayesian inference has a number of applications in molecular phylogenetics , for example, estimation of species phylogeny and species divergence times. Basic Bayesian theory Recall that for Bayesian inference math p theta D frac p D theta p theta p D math The denominator math p D math is the marginal probability of the data , averaged over all possible parameter values weighted by their prior distribution. Formally, math p D int Theta p D theta p theta d theta math where math Theta math is the parameter space for math theta math . In the original Metropolis algorithm , given a current math theta math value math x math , and a new math theta math value math y math , the new value is accepted with probability math h y h x frac p D y p y p D x p x math The LOCAL algorithm of Larget and Simon The LOCAL algorithm begins by selecting an internal branch of the tree at random. The nodes at the ends of this branch are each connected to two other branches. One of each pair is chosen at random. Imagine taking these three selected edges and stringing them like a clothesline from left to right, where the direction left right is also selected at random. The two endpoints of the first branch selected will have a sub tree hanging like a piece of clothing strung to the line.

Distance matrices are used in phylogeny as non parametric distance methods were originally applied to phenetic data using a matrix of pairwise distances. These distances are then reconciled to produce a tree a phylogram , with informative branch lengths . The distance matrix can come from a number of different sources, including measured distance for example from immunology immunological studies or morphometric analysis , various pairwise distance formulae such as euclidean distance applied to discrete morphological characters, or genetic distance from sequence, restriction fragment , or allozyme data. For phylogenetic character data, raw distance values can be calculated by simply counting the number of pairwise differences in character states Manhattan distance . Distance matrix methods Distance matrix methods of phylogenetic analysis explicitly rely on a measure of genetic distance between the sequences being classified, and therefore they require an MSA multiple sequence alignment as an input. Distance is often defined as the fraction of mismatches at aligned positions, with gaps either ignored or counted as mismatches. ref name mount Mount DM. 2004 .

Mikko s Phylogeny Archive is an amateur paleontology website maintained by Mikko Haaramo, a student at the University of Helsinki s Department of Geology, Division of Geology and Palaeontology. ref name mikko cite web last Haaramo first Mikko year 2007 title Mikko s Phylogeny Archive accessdate 4 October 2007 url http www.helsinki.fi mhaaramo ref The project is aimed at collecting cladogram phylogenetic trees of all organisms. Each page presents a cladogram that is hyperlink ed to its parent and daughter cladograms, plus a section for references. Taxa of uncertain relationship are indicated by a question mark. No indication is given for what part of the cladogram is based on which specific references. The site was originally simply named Life as We Know It , and with the Dinosauricon it was the first web site to use an ascii text based format for showing cladograms. Although the Archive has been hosted by the Finnish Museum of the Natural History and now the University of Helsinki s servers, the museum has no formal affiliation with it. Haaramo points out that the site is a private project, is not peer reviewed, and should not be used as a scientific reference. As of 11 May 2006, Mikko s Phylogeny Archive contains nearly 4,600 pages, most of them cladograms or taxonomic listings. Together with Palaeos and the Paleobiology Database it provides a near comprehensive listing of many groups, genera and species of extinct organisms, along with recent taxa. While Haaramo had the intention of keeping the site alive and updated, he has found little time for that, and the site was last updated 1 November 2010.

Least squares inference in phylogeny generates a phylogenetic tree based on an observed matrix of pairwise genetic distance s and optionally a weight matrix. The goal is to find a tree which satisfies the distance constraints as best as possible. Ordinary and weighted least squares The discrepancy between the observed pairwise distances math D ij math and the distances math T ij math over a phylogenetic tree i.e. the sum of the branch lengths in the path from leaf math i math to leaf math j math is measured by math S sum ij w ij D ij T ij 2 math where the weights math w ij math depend on the least squares method used. Least squares distance tree construction aims to find the tree topology and branch lengths with minimal S. This is a non trivial problem. It involves searching the discrete space of unrooted binary tree topologies whose size is exponential in the number of leaves. For n leaves there are 1 3 5 ... 2n 3 different topologies. Enumerating them is not feasible already for a small number of leaves. Heuristic search methods are used to find a reasonably good topology. The evaluation of S for a given topology which includes the computation of the branch lengths is a linear least squares problem. There are several ways to weight the squared errors math D ij T ij 2 math , depending on the knowledge and assumptions about the variances of the observed distances. When nothing is known about the errors, or if they are assumed to be independently distributed and equal for all observed distances, then all the weights math w ij math are set to one. This leads to an ordinary least squares estimate. In the weighted least squares case the errors are assumed to be independent or their correlations are not known . Given independent errors, a particular weight should ideally be set to the inverse of the variance of the corresponding distance estimate. Sometimes the variances may not be known, but they can be modeled as a function of the distance estimates. In the Fitch and Margoliash ... more details
