Phylogenetic or family trees reconstructed from a sample of individuals belonging to a population or species can be used to infer population dynamic history. A method for making such inferences involves visual inspection of the graphs of the numbers of lineages in the phylogeny plotted against the t
## Abstract Among crocodilians, __Crocodylus rhombifer__ is one of the world's most endangered species with the smallest natural distribution. In Cuba, this endemic species coexists with the American crocodile (__Crocodylus acutus__). Hybridization between these two species is well known in captivi
We report here the results of one of the first analyses to use male-specific nuclear markers in elucidating primate phylogenetic relationships at the intrageneric level. Two closely linked Y chromosome markers, TSPY and SRY, were sequenced for a total of 3100 bases. Forty-four macaques, representing
## Abstract Phylogenetic trees from multiple genes can be obtained in two fundamentally different ways. In one, gene sequences are concatenated into a superβgene alignment, which is then analyzed to generate the species tree. In the other, phylogenies are inferred separately from each gene, and a c
