1 Dr. Walter Salzburger he tree of life, ustav Klimt (1907) Inferring Molecular Phylogeny Inferring Molecular Phylogeny 55 Maximum Parsimony (MP): objections long branches I!! B D long branch attraction problem can lead to more support for ((,),(B,D)) than for ((,B),(,D))

2 Inferring Molecular Phylogeny 56 Maximum Likelihood (ML)! Maximum likelihood principle: preference of the explanation that makes the observed outcome the most likely (i.e. the most probable)! in phylogenetics: choosing the tree that explains best the data, i.e. the tree that makes the data at hand the most probable evolutionary outcome ( most likely tree )...!...based on a model of molecular evolution Inferring Molecular Phylogeny 57 Maximum Likelihood (ML) likelihood data LD = Pr ( D H ) hypothesis probability of obtaining the data (D) given a tree (H)! he most likely tree is the one that maximizes LD under a discrete model of molecular evolution

L(j) j=1 values get incredibly small ln Ldata = ln Lsite1 x ln Lsite2 x ln Lsite3 x... x ln LsiteN = N = " ln L(j) j=1

5 Models of Molecular Evolution 2 Models of molecular evolution! Why do we need models of sequences evolution?! How do these models look like?! Which model is best?! How do we chose the right model? Inferring Molecular Phylogeny 3 Why? orrection for transition/transversion bias RNSIION RNSVERSION RNSVERSION RNSIION ransition mutations outnumber transversions!

6 Models of Molecular Evolution 4 Why? orrection for different base frequencies axon axon B axon axon D alignment base frequencies freq. = 14/32 = freq. = 4/32 = freq. = 2/32 = freq. = 12/32 = Here, if a mutation occurs, it is more likely that an mutates into something else than that a changes into something else... Models of Molecular Evolution 5 Why? orrection for multiple hits Sequence difference Expected difference } Observed difference multiple hit correction ime multiple hit problem due to back-mutations

7 Models of Molecular Evolution 6 How? Discrete model of molecular evolution! remember:! NJ, UPM, ME ( distance methods ): a distance is translated into a phylogenetic hypothesis! MP: each mutations counts the same* *Note: there is a possibility to weight mutations Models of Molecular Evolution 7 How? Substitution probability matrix probability that site started with and stayed P P P P Pt = P P P P P P P P P P P P probability that site started with but had a at time = t

" f " c " e " f. f = [ " " " " ] six classes of substitutions: a, b, c, d, e, f Yang et al. (1994)
