This paper reviews species tree-aware phylogenetic methods, evaluates their reliability, and discusses their applications and limitations in inferring gene and species trees.

This study introduces a method to improve molecular dating by combining fossil calibrations with relative age constraints, showing significant improvements in estimating node ages using simulations and empirical data.

This paper analyzes how the structure of cell lineage trees influences cancer risk by deriving an analytical formula that links lineage length distributions to mutation accumulation probabilities.

This paper shows that small tissue compartments create a selective threshold that prevents mutations with proliferative advantages from persisting, thereby slowing somatic evolution and reducing cancer risk.

The paper uses lateral gene transfer patterns to date the Tree of Life, showing they are as informative as fossils for microbial lineages.

The paper develops a model showing hierarchical tissue organization limits somatic mutation accumulation by reducing divisional load, independent of differentiation processes.
