In this presentation, I explored the Jukes-Cantor model (JC69), a foundational model in molecular evolution that assumes equal mutation rates among all four nucleotides. Under the supervision of Prof.
This directory contains a phylip file for each locus in the complete UCE data matrix (n = 2,107 UCE loci). Each file contains aligned sequence data for that UCE locus in phylip format. Taxon names hav
The reconstruction of the Tree of Life has relied almost entirely on concatenation methods, which do not accommodate gene tree heterogeneity, a property that simulations and theory have identified as
