3 by George Richmond Darwin: "species have changed, and are still slowly changing by the preservation and accumulation of successive slight favorable variations."

4 Ernst Haeckel, Tree of Life 1866

5 Let X = {x 1,...,x n } denote a set of taxa. A phylogenetic tree T (or X-tree) ) is given by labeling the leaves of a tree by the set X: Taxa + tree phylogenetic tree

6 Unrooted tree tree inference methods usually produce unrooted trees Rooted tree, rooted using Chicken as outgroup biologically relevant, defines clades of related taxa

7 Each branch e of a phylogenetic tree T may be scaled to represent r t, the rate of evolution r time t along e: 0.01 Chicken Seal Blue Whale Mouse Fin Whale Seal Cow Rat Chimp Human Gorilla root

8 Sequences evolve along a pre-given tree T, called the evolutionary -, model - or the true tree Two types of events: mutations and speciation events

9 time Evolutionary tree Sequence of common ancestor Mutations along branches Speciation events at nodes

10 Tree? Evolutionary tree

13 What is a phylogenetic tree? The concept is very clearly defined Only ambiguity: unrooted or rooted?

14 The concept of a phylogenetic network is not so clear? 1. There are many different types, eg: trees, split networks, median networks, median joining networks, neighbor-net, net, consensus networks, reticulate networks, recombination networks, ARGs, hybridization networks, reticulgrams, haplotype networks, netting, etc

15 2. The general term phylogenetic network is often defined to mean some specific type of network, e.g.: Phylogenetic network = recombination network (Gusfield et al ) Phylogenetic network = hybridization network (Linder and Rieseberg 2004) Phylogenetic network = reticulate network with multi-edges (Huber and Moulton, 2005)

16 A phylogenetic network is any network that represents evolutionary relationships between taxa Usually: taxa are represented by nodes, and evolutionary relationships by edges

17 Split networks Phylogenetic trees Reticulate networks Other types of phylogenetic networks Median networks Consensus (super) networks Hybridization networks Special case: Galled trees Recombination networks Augmented trees, such as DLT trees Split decomposition, Neighbor-net Ancestor recombination graphs Any graph representing evolutionary data

18 3. source of confusion: there are two fundamentally different types of phylogenetic networks: ones that provide an explicit picture of evolution, and ones that provide an implicit picture of evolution

19 This distinction applies already to trees: implicit Visualization of signals explicit Evolutionary scenario

20 This distinction is even more important for networks: Unrooted vs. rooted distinction applies Additionally: some network methods aim at displaying (incompatible) phylogenetic signals, while others aim at explicitly modelling reticulate evolution

21 Split networks Phylogenetic trees Reticulate networks Other types of phylogenetic networks Median networks Consensus (super) networks Hybridization networks Special case: Galled trees Recombination networks Augmented trees, such as DLT trees Split decomposition, Neighbor-net Ancestor recombination graphs Any graph representing evolutionary data

22 Will look at split networks as a major class of implicit networks Other types of implicit networks exist, e.g. haplotype networks Splits and split networks from sequences from distances from trees

23 Every edge of a tree defines a split of the taxon set X: x 6 x 1 x 4 x 8 e x 5 x 2 x 7 x 3 x 1,x 3,x 4,x 6,x 7 vs x 2,x 5,x 8

24 Tree T: Split encoding Σ (T): 5 trivial splits: 2 non-trivial splits:

25 Two splits A 1 B 1 and A 2 B 2 of X are compatible,, if {A 1 A 2, A 1 B 2,B 1 A 2,B 1 A 2 } Two compatible splits: A 1 B 1 x 4 A 2 B 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 8 x 1 x 5 x 6 x 9 X

26 Two splits A 1 B 1 and A 2 B 2 of X are compatible,, if {A 1 A 2,A 1 B 2,B 1 A 2,B 1 A 2 } Two splits: A 1 B 1 x 4 x 5 A 2 B 2 x 6 x 2 x 1 x 7 x 3 X

27 Cut-set of parallel edges defines split { {A,B}} vs rest

28 Consider the following two trees T 1 and T 2, for which the splits are incompatible: p T 1 + T 2 SN(Σ ) A split network SN(Σ ) represents an incompatible set of splits Σ :=Σ (T 1 ) Σ (T 2 ), using bands of parallel edges for incompatible splits. q p q

29 Six gene trees: Σ(1/2): majority consensus: splits contained in more than 50% of trees Σ(1/6): splits contained in more than one tree Σ(0): splits contained in at least one tree

30 Any given system Σ of splits can be represented by a split network N. N Note that: N is a tree iff Σ is compatible (e.g. Neighbor-Joining) N is outer- labeled- planar iff Σ is circular (e.g. Neighbor-Net, Net, Bryant & Moulton 2002) N is usually planar or only mildy non-planar iff Σ is weakly compatible (e.g. Split Decomposition) N is always subgraph of n-dim. hypercube (e.g. recoding of sequences, spectral analysis, median networks, consensus networks, Z-super networks) (Theory of splits introduced by Bandelt and Dress 1992)

31 Data: 60 variable sites of DNA for 35 haplotypes of Dusky Dolphins (Cassens et al, 2003) One type of split network, essentially a median network (Bandelt 1995)

32 Split Decomposition (Bandelt, Dress 1992) or Neighbor-NetNet (Bryant, Moulton 2002) produces network from distances

34 Split Decomposition is useful for visualizing imcompatible signals in a data set. Distances in network approximate input matrix Sensitive to noise and only has good resolution for small or very clean data sets. The Neighbor-NetNet method is a hybrid of Neighbor-Joining and Split Decomposition. Applicable to data sets with hundreds of taxa. Restricted to planar graphs and tends to produce spider-webs. (Bryant and Moulton, 2002)

36 Split network representing all maximum parsimony trees (trees computed by dnapars)

37 A collection of trees can be represented by a consensus network or super network

55 Bacteria can become resistant to an antibiotic by having contact with other types of bacteria that are already resistant to the drug. This is due to the fact that bacteria commonly swap genes

56 Ask two different genes what the phylogeny of a set of species is and you will get two different answers T 1 T 2 T 3 T 1 T 2 T 3 Gene Tree1 Gene Tree2

57 Even given only vertical descent of genes, gene trees can differ from species trees: T 1 T 2 T 3 A A B x x x A A B T 1 T 2 T 3 Gene duplication A B G Gene Tree Species Tree

67 The evolutionary history associated with any given gene is a tree A network N with k reticulations gives rise to 2 k different gene trees b 1 a h c b 3 b 1 a h c b 3 P Q b 1 a h c b 3 P-tree N Q-tree

68 Given a set of trees, determine a reticulate network N such that T(N) and N contains a minimum number of reticulation nodes. In fully generality, this is known to be a computationally hard problem [Wang et al 2001].

69 Reticulation nodes r i, r j N are independent, if they are not contained in a common cycle: r 1 r 2 r 3 Galled trees, Gusfield Gusfield et al. ( ) 2005)

70 A new splits-based approach [Huson [Huson et al. RECOMB2005, ECCB2005]: gene tree1 gene tree2 split network of all splits reticulate network

71 Two reticulations four different gene trees all splits Reticulate network that explains all input trees

72 Method goes far beyond galled trees and gt-networks Input trees all splits Reticulate network that explains all input trees

73 Each incompatibility component can be considered independently: (Gusfield et al. 2005) (Huson et al. 2005) 2005)

74 A reticulation corresponds to a subtree that attaches at two places: A X B 1 B 2 B 3 B 4 X C (Maddison 1997, Wang et al,, 2001, Gusfield et al , 2005, Nakhleh et al. 2004)
