Analytical methods facilitating the use of molecular and morphological characters as complementary sources of phylogenetic information are explored. Separation of phylogenetically useful information from misleading patterns of character variation is most effective when the methods of "taxonomic congruence" and "character congruence" are used together. Statistical approaches for implementing both methods are described and illustrated with an example from the phylogeny of salamanders.
探讨了有助于将分子和形态特征用作系统发育信息补充来源的分析方法。当“分类学一致性”和“特征一致性”方法一起使用时,从误导性的特征变异模式中分离出系统发育有用信息最为有效。描述了实施这两种方法的统计方法,并用蝾螈系统发育的一个例子进行了说明。
