Overview

The project is composed of four work packages:

• WP1: Estimation of phylogenetic trees without alignment

  ---

  Bypassing sequence alignment to reconstruct gene trees

• WP2: Faster and more accurate inference of epidemiological and diversification parameters by skipping timetree estimation

  ---

  Bypassing tree reconstruction to infer epidemiological and diversification parameters

• WP3: Gene reconciliation and mapping of events directly from gene family alignments

  ---

  Bypassing gene tree reconstruction to identify events of gene duplication, transfer and loss

• WP4: Associations between the genome and the phenotype without ancestral reconstructions

  ---

  Bypassing reconstruction of ancestral phenotypes to infer genotype-phenotype associations in a comparative framework
