phylogeography

Edwards SV, Potter S, Schmitt CJ, Bragg JG & Moritz C 2016 Reticulation, divergence, and the phylogeography-phylogenetics continuum. PNAS 113:8025-8032.

  • with burgeoning data and increasing applications of related analytical tools, such as site-frequency spectra and coalescent simulations, we can ask whether and how phylogeography is now distinct from population genetics
  • there is still value in the original conception of phylogeography as a bridge between population biology and phylogenetics
  • the flanking regions of ultraconserved elements (UCEs) have been promoted as suitable for phylogeographic questions, with the advantage that they are variable and their presence in [?] can be predicted in uncharacterized genomes
