Dating ancient splits in phylogenetic trees, with application to the human-Neanderthal split
Abstract Background We tackle the problem of estimating species TMRCAs (Time to Most Recent Common Ancestor), given a genome sequence from each species and a large known phylogenetic tree with a known structure (typically from one of the species). The number of transitions at each site from the firs...
