This study uses Bayesian phylogenetic networks to analyze reassortment patterns in human Rotavirus A segments, finding changes in reassortment rates and genotype compatibility over time.

The paper investigates factors determining effective reassortment in orthohantaviruses, finding that ecological overlap and molecular compatibility are key for reassortant establishment.

The paper shows that seasonal reassortment between high and low pathogenic influenza A/H5N1 viruses drives genotype diversification, with ducks, geese, and the Central flyway as key sources.

This study models latency in Ebola virus using a novel phylogenetic approach, finding evidence of extended quiescence in the reservoir, which changes understanding of its evolutionary history and geographic spread.

MASCOT-Skyline jointly infers spatial and temporal transmission dynamics of infectious diseases using a structured coalescent skyline approach, revealing biases in existing phylogeographic methods.

This paper introduces improved MCMC proposal distributions for Bayesian phylodynamic inference, enhancing scalability and reducing convergence time in phylogenetic analysis.
