About this Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology article

ModelFinder: fast model selection for accurate phylogenetic estimates by Subha Kalyaanamoorthy; Bui Quang Minh; Thomas K F Wong; Arndt von Haeseler; Lars S Jermiin is a Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology article available to read on EtoBox.

Model-based molecular phylogenetics plays an important role in comparisons of genomic data, and model selection is a key step in all such analyses. We present ModelFinder, a fast model-selection method that greatly improves the accuracy of phylogenetic estimates by incorporating a model of rate heterogeneity across sites not previously considered in this context and by allowing concurrent searches of model space and tree space.

It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology.
