Host-symbiont-gene phylogenetic reconciliation by Menet, Hugo, Trung, Alexia Nguyen, Daubin, Vincent, Tannier, Eric

“…Given three phylogenetic trees, we devise a Monte Carlo algorithm which samples evolutionary scenarios of symbionts and genes according to an approximation of their likelihood in the model. We evaluate the capacity of our method on simulated data, notably its capacity to infer horizontal gene transfers, and its ability to detect hostsymbiont co-evolution by comparing host/symbiont/gene and symbiont/gene models based on their estimated likelihoods. …”
