Marginal Likelihood Estimate Comparisons to Obtain Optimal Species Delimitations in Silene sect. Cryptoneurae (Caryophyllaceae)

Aydın, Zeynep; Marcussen, Thomas; Ertekin, Alaattin Selçuk; Oxelman, Bengt (PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 1160 BATTERY STREET, STE 100, SAN FRANCISCO, CA 94111 USA, 2014)

Coalescent-based inference of phylogenetic relationships among species takes into account gene tree incongruence due to incomplete lineage sorting, but for such methods to make sense species have to be correctly delimited. ...
Species delimitation without prior knowledge: DISSECT reveals extensive cryptic speciation in the Silene aegyptiaca complex (Caryophyllaceae)

Toprak, Zeynep; Pfeil, Bernard E.; Jones, Graham; Marcussen, Thomas; Ertekin, Alaattin Selcuk; Oxelman, Bengt (Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2016)

Species delimitation is a major focus of biosystematics. In recent years, considerable progress has been achieved with the development of the multispecies coalescent (MSC) model, where species constitute the branches of ...
