Part III - Algorithms and applications
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 05 August 2011
Summary
In this third part of the book we present a wide range of algorithms that have been developed for computing phylogenetic networks from biological data. For many of the methods, we briefly describe an application and provide references to papers that contain more details. The material is organized by type of input, which is either splits (Chapter 7), clusters (Chapter 8), sequences (Chapter 9), distances (Chapter 10), trees (Chapter 11), triples or quartets (Chapter 12). Additionally, we address the problem of drawing phylogenetic networks (Chapter 13) and give an overview of some of the existing software for computing them (Chapter 14).
