Bayesian Node Dating based on Probabilities of Fossil Sampling Supports Trans-Atlantic Dispersal of Cichlid Fishes

This paper introduces a new Bayesian node dating method that improves age estimates by using first fossil occurrences and clade-specific sampling rates, revealing trans-Atlantic dispersal of cichlid fishes.

Bayesian analysis of normal mouse cell lineage trees allowing intra-individual, cell population specific mutation rates

This study uses Bayesian phylogenetics to reconstruct cell lineage trees from single-cell mutations in mice, finding differences in mutation rates between individuals and cell populations.

Capturing heterotachy through multi-gamma site models

The paper introduces a multi-gamma site model to better capture lineage-specific rate variation in phylogenetic analysis, improving fit and ancestral node date estimates in green algae and land-plant data.

Phylogeography by Diffusion on a Sphere

This paper introduces a Bayesian phylogeographical method based on diffusion on a sphere, showing improved results for global samples compared to planar diffusion models.

Species Delimitation using Genome-Wide SNP Data

This paper introduces a new Bayesian method for species delimitation using genome-wide SNP data, demonstrating its effectiveness through simulations and application to geckos.
