Abstract EN
The reconstruction of phylogenies is becoming an increasingly simple activity.
This is mainly due to two reasons: the democratization of computing power and the increased availability of sophisticated yet user-friendly software.
This review describes some of the latest additions to the phylogenetic toolbox, along with some of their theoretical and practical limitations.
It is shown that Bayesian methods are under heavy development as they offer the possibility to solve a number of long-standing issues and to integrate several steps of the phylogenetic analyses into a single framework.
Specific topics include not only phylogenetic reconstruction, but also the comparison of phylogenies, the detection of adaptive evolution, and the estimation of divergence times between species.
