MacClade: Analysis of phylogeny and character evolution
TL;DR: MacClade is a computer program that provides theory and tools for the graphic and interactive analysis of molecular and morphological data, phylogeny, and character evolution, yet its ease of use allows beginning students to grasp phylogenetic principles in an interactive environment.
Book
Macclade: Analysis of Phylogeny and Character Evolution/Version 3
TL;DR: Part I Introducing MacClade: introduction - a tutorial overview of MacClades and an introduction to phylogeny reconstructing character evolution using parsimony stratigraphic parsimony.
Journal ArticleDOI
Outgroup analysis and parsimony
TL;DR: Methods that use outgroups in the reconstruction of phylogeny are described and evaluated by the criterion of parsimony, and algorithms and rules are presented that find the most parsimonious estimates of ancestral states for binary and multistate characters when outgroup relationships are well resolved.
Journal ArticleDOI
The discovery and importance of multiple islands of most-parsimonious trees
TL;DR: In this article, the set of most parsimonious trees for a data matrix may include several distinct classes (islands) of trees, each one differing from the next by a single rearrangement of branches.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Tree of Life Web Project
TL;DR: The Tree of Life Web Project (ToL) as discussed by the authors provides information on the Internet about our current knowledge of the evolutionary tree of life and associated information about characteristics and diversity of life on Earth.
