In 2002, Skerratt et al. phylogenetically analysed sequence data for several haplotypes of the parasitic mite Sarcoptes scabiei from wombat, human and dog hosts in Australia, to test scenarios concerning the origin and diversification of the scabies infections in wombats. Here we note that their substantive conclusions can be called into question by the choice of model used in their phylogenetic analysis, the lack of a root for their phylogenetic trees, and their interpretation of the evolutionary scenario.
2002年，斯克拉特等人对来自澳大利亚袋熊、人类和犬类宿主的寄生螨疥螨几种单倍型的序列数据进行了系统发育分析，以检验有关袋熊疥螨感染起源和多样化的假设。在此我们指出，他们的实质性结论可能会因系统发育分析中使用的模型选择、系统发育树缺乏根节点以及他们对进化假设的解释而受到质疑。
