On the effects of selection and mutation on species tree inference

M. Wascher, L. S. Kubatko

The paper investigates how selection and mutation affect species tree inference by deriving a coalescent model that includes these factors and shows they have a small impact on inference.

Consistency of SVDQuartets and Maximum Likelihood for Coalescent-based Species Tree Estimation

M. Wascher, L. Kubatko

This paper shows that SVDQuartets is statistically consistent for species tree estimation under the coalescent model, and demonstrates ML consistency for CIS data under JC69, while highlighting challenges in the multilocus case.
