1.
Bettisworth B, Psonis N, Poulakakis N, Pavlidis P, Stamatakis A
Mol Biol Evol . 2025 Jan; 42(2). PMID: 39823473
A common problem when analyzing ancient DNA data is to identify the species that corresponds to the recovered analyzing ancient DNA sequence(s). The standard approach is to deploy sequence similarity-based...

Wiegert J, Hohler D, Haag J, Stamatakis A
Mol Biol Evol . 2024 Oct; 41(10). PMID: 39418337
Estimating the statistical robustness of the inferred tree(s) constitutes an integral part of most phylogenetic analyses. Commonly, one computes and assigns a branch support value to each inner branch of...

Williams T, Davin A, Szantho L, Stamatakis A, Wahl N, Woodcroft B, et al.
ISME J . 2024 Jul; 18(1. PMID: 39001714
In recent years, phylogenetic reconciliation has emerged as a promising approach for studying microbial ecology and evolution. The core idea is to model how gene trees evolve along a species...

Psonis N, Vassou D, Nafplioti A, Tabakaki E, Pavlidis P, Stamatakis A, et al.
Forensic Sci Int Genet . 2024 May; 71:103060. PMID: 38796876
In the Battle of Crete during the World War II occupation of Greece, the German forces faced substantial civilian resistance. To retribute the numerous German losses, a series of mass...

Kotsakiozi P, Antoniou A, Psonis N, Sagonas K, Karameta E, Ilgaz C, et al.
Mol Phylogenet Evol . 2024 May; 197:108091. PMID: 38719080
Cryptic diversity poses a great obstacle in our attempts to assess the current biodiversity crisis and may hamper conservation efforts. The gekkonid genus Mediodactylus, a well-known case of hidden species...

Stiller J, Feng S, Chowdhury A, Rivas-Gonzalez I, Duchene D, Fang Q, et al.
Nature . 2024 Apr; 629(8013):851-860. PMID: 38560995
Despite tremendous efforts in the past decades, relationships among main avian lineages remain heavily debated without a clear resolution. Discrepancies have been attributed to diversity of species sampled, phylogenetic method...

Morel B, Williams T, Stamatakis A, Szollosi G
Bioinformatics . 2024 Mar; 40(4). PMID: 38514421
Motivation: Genomes are a rich source of information on the pattern and process of evolution across biological scales. How best to make use of that information is an active area...
8.
Trost J, Haag J, Hohler D, Jacob L, Stamatakis A, Boussau B
Mol Biol Evol . 2023 Dec; 41(1). PMID: 38124381
Motivation: Simulating multiple sequence alignments (MSAs) using probabilistic models of sequence evolution plays an important role in the evaluation of phylogenetic inference tools and is crucial to the development of...

Togkousidis A, Kozlov O, Haag J, Hohler D, Stamatakis A
Mol Biol Evol . 2023 Oct; 40(10). PMID: 37804116
Phylogenetic inferences under the maximum likelihood criterion deploy heuristic tree search strategies to explore the vast search space. Depending on the input dataset, searches from different starting trees might all...

Haag J, Hubner L, Kozlov A, Stamatakis A
Bioinform Adv . 2023 Sep; 3(1):vbad124. PMID: 37750068
Summary: Maximum likelihood (ML) is a widely used phylogenetic inference method. ML implementations heavily rely on numerical optimization routines that use internal numerical thresholds to determine convergence. We systematically analyze...
