The paper compares mixture and partition models for phylogenetic analyses using the mAIC and finds mixture models consistently outperform partition models.

PartitionFinder-mAIC improves phylogenetic partitioning by using marginal AIC, resulting in fewer partitions and better inference of green plant evolution.

MixtureFinder estimates optimal DNA mixture models for phylogenetic analyses by selecting the best number of classes for Q matrices in DNA sequence evolution.
