Reconstructing Trees from Subtree Weights | | Lior Pachter

11 Nov 2003 | | Subject: | Combinatorics; Populations and Evolution | math.CO q-bio.PE | | Abstract: | The tree-metric theorem provides a necessary and sufficient condition for a dissimilarity matrix to be a tree metric, and has served as the foundation for numerous distance-based reconstruction methods in phylogenetics. Our main result is an extension of the tree-metric theorem to more general dissimilarity maps. In particular, we show that a tree with n leaves is reconstructible from the weights of the m-leaf subtrees provided that n geq 2m-1. | | Source: | arXiv, math.CO/0311156 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
