#inapplicables

A reconsideration of inapplicable characters, and an approximation with step‐matrix recoding Evidence for phylogenetic analysis comes in the form of observed similarities, and trees are selected to minimize the number of similarities that cannot be accounted for by homology (homoplasies). Th...

We also provide additional discussion and background of the onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... step matrix approach to #inapplicables that is used in our recent onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... paper on #phylogenetic methods to incorporate different types of character dependence.
