Up to now, various approaches for phylogenetic analysis have been developed. Almost all of them put stress on analyzing nucleic acid sequences or protein primary sequences. In this paper, we propose a new sequence distance for efficient reconstruction of phylogenetic trees based on the distribution of length about common sub-sequences between two sequences. We describe some applications of this method, which not only show the validity of the method, but also suggest a number of novel phylogenetic insights.
到目前为止,已经开发了多种用于系统发育分析的方法。几乎所有方法都侧重于分析核酸序列或蛋白质一级序列。在本文中,我们基于两个序列之间公共子序列长度的分布,提出了一种新的序列距离,用于有效地重建系统发育树。我们描述了这种方法的一些应用,这些应用不仅表明了该方法的有效性,而且还提供了一些新的系统发育见解。
