Phylogeny of squirrels (Sciurus, Rodentia) based on supertrees reconstruction

Phylogeny of squirrels (Sciurus, Rodentia) based on supertrees reconstruction
Abstract:
Odkedy sa molekulárne dáta využívajú na stanovenie fylogenézy, vrámci skupiny stromových veveríc tribu Sciurini sa pojednáva o mnohých taxonomických nejasnostiach. Pracovala som s rozsiahlym molekulárnym materiálom, aby som stanovila fylogenetické vzťahy a odhalila, kde skupina vznikla. Použila som mitochondriálne a jadrové DNA sekvencie, verejne dostupné, a pomocou Bayesiánskej analýzy a šiestich …more
Abstract:
Since molecular data are used to infer phylogeny, many taxonomic ambiguities have been discussed in the group of tree squirrels of the tribe Sciurini. In this study, I worked with extensive published molecular material to establish phylogenetic relationships and discover where the tribe originated. I used mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequences and through Bayesian analysis and six different methods …more
