Bayesian Phylogenetics - Bog

Suitable for graduate-level researchers in statistics and biology, this book presents a snapshot of current trends in Bayesian phylogenetic research. It emphasizes model selection, reflecting recent interest in accurately estimating marginal likelihoods. The book discusses new approaches to improve mixing in Bayesian phylogenetic analyses in which the tree topology varies. It also covers divergence time estimation, biologically realistic models, and the burgeoning interface between phylogenetics and population genetics.
