Title On probability and systematics: possibility, probability, and phylogenetic inference
Date 2005-10-01
Description In phylogenetic systematics, an ongoing debate has revolved around the appropriate choice of methodology for the construction of phylogenetic trees and inference of ancestral states. A recent paper by Mark Siddall and Arnold Kluge (Siddall and Kluge, 1997) advocates a privileged status for parsimony analysis, to the exclusion of other, statistically based, phylogenetic methods.
