  2. ncbi Multiple genome rearrangement and breakpoint phylogeny
    D Sankoff
    Centre de Recherches Mathématiques, Universite de Montreal, Quebec, Canada
    J Comput Biol 5:555-70. 1998
    ..Accuracy improves with very careful initializations at the non-terminal nodes. The degree of non-uniqueness of solutions depends on the position of the node in the tree in terms of path length to the terminal vertices...
  3. ncbi Parametric genome rearrangement
    M Blanchette
    Centre de Recherches Mathématiques, Universite de Montreal, Quebec, Canada
    Gene 172:GC11-7. 1996
    ..We also explore segment-length weighting for fungal mitochondrial gene orders...
  4. ncbi An ancestral mitochondrial DNA resembling a eubacterial genome in miniature
    B F Lang
    Departement de Biochimie, Universite de Montreal, Quebec, Canada
    Nature 387:493-7. 1997
    ..americana mtDNA more closely resembles the ancestral proto-mitochondrial genome than any other mtDNA investigated to date...
  5. ncbi Phylogenetic invariants for genome rearrangements
    D Sankoff
    Centre de Recherches Mathématiques, University de Montreal, Quebec, Canada
    J Comput Biol 6:431-45. 1999
    ..The invariants are based on an extended Jukes-Cantor semigroup. We illustrate the use of these invariants to relate mitochondrial genomes from a number of invertebrate animals...
  6. ncbi Karyotype distributions in a stochastic model of reciprocal translocation

    Centre de Recherches Mathématiques, Universite de Montreal, Quebec, Canada
    Genome Res 6:1-9. 1996
    ..e., ahistorical) distribution of genomic DNA among k chromosomes and to a selection of karyotypes of real organisms. The results motivate a revised model where translocations giving rise to undersize chromosomes are disadvantaged...
  7. ncbi Conserved segment identification
    D Sankoff
    Centre de Recherches Mathématiques, Universite de Montreal, Succursale Centre Ville, Quebec
    J Comput Biol 4:559-65. 1997
    ..We present a formula to evaluate possible conserved segments and an algorithm which seeks the partition of the genome into segments optimal under this evaluation. Application is made to the human-mouse comparison...
