Phylogenetic Mixtures on a Single Tree Can Mimic a Tree of Another Topology

Phylogenetic Mixtures on a Single Tree Can Mimic a Tree of Another Topology

Phylogenetic mixtures model the inhomogeneous molecular evolution commonly observed in data. The performance of phylogenetic reconstruction methods where the underlying data are generated by a mixture model has stimulated considerable recent debate. Much of the controversy stems from simulations of mixture model data on a given tree topology for which …
