Reconciling Gene Trees to a Species Tree (original) (raw)
Abstract
In this paper we deal with the general problem of recombining the information from evolutionary trees representing the relationships between distinct gene families. First we solve a problem from [8] regarding the construction of a minimum reconciled tree by giving an efficient algorithm. Then we show that the exemplar problem, arising from the exemplar analysis of multigene genomes [2], is NP-hard even when the number of copies of a given label is at most two. Finally we introduce two novel formulations for the problem of recombining evolutionary trees, extending the notion of the gene duplication problem studied in [88,11,9,10,6], and we give an exact algorithm (via dynamic programming) for one of the formulations given.
