Common scenario Multiple sequence alignment (MSA) Phylogenetic method • Common phylogenetic assumptions • Evolutionary history is tree-like • Sites have evolved under IID conditions • Evolutionary process can be modelled by a time-reversible Markov model, R R R R R R R R R Mixture models of molecular evolution | Lars Jermiin | Page 3
Reality check Compositional heterogeneity(CH) across the sequences is common – CH across sequences implies that a more complex model of evolution is necessary R1 R4 R1 R1 R2 R3 R4 R5 Mixture models of molecular evolution | Lars Jermiin | Page 4
Finding the optimal evolutionary model Top-down approach R1 R1 R1 R6 R1 R2 R3 R1 R4 R1 R1 R5 R7 R1 R8 R1 Bottom-up approach Syst. Biol. (accepted) Mixture models of molecular evolution | Lars Jermiin | Page 5
