Species Delimitation: A Decade After the Renaissance (2013, positive): “Because these methods rely on explicit predictions about genealogical patterns under alternative models of lineage divergence, it is possible to carry out species delimitation in a more objec‐ tive and bias-free fashion compared to diagnosability-based SDL methods [90].”
ASAP: assemble species by automatic partitioning (2020, methodology): “In this category, the most popular methods are SpedeSTEM (Ence & Carstens, 2011), BPP (Yang & Rannala, 2014) and BFD (Leaché et al., 2014), reviewed (with other methods) in several articles (Camargo & Sites, 2013; Carstens et al., 2013; Fujita et al., 2012; Leavitt et al., 2015; Rannala, 2015).”
Reproductive isolation and the causes of speciation rate variation in nature (2016, methodology): “, 2006; Yang & Rannala, 2010) represents a trend towards greater practical application of BSClike species concepts to taxonomy (Fujita et al., 2012), although the use of these models is still restricted to a small fraction of annual taxonomic volume.”
Species Delimitation using Genome-Wide SNP Data (2013, methodology): “New species delimitation methods are increasing in statistical rigor and objectivity as a result of adopting a multispecies coalescent model (Fujita et al. 2012), although expanding these methods to truly embrace genome-scale data may be limited by their reliance on gene trees.”
Multispecies coalescent delimits structure, not species (2017, background): “Addressing this knowledge gap—can the multispecies coalescent distinguish population-level structure and species boundaries— is critical, given the advocacy for delimiting taxa under the multispecies coalescent (28).”
DNA-based species delimitation in algae (2014, background): “Coalescent theory: ‘the mathematical and probabilistic theory underlying the evolutionary history of alleles’ within a population lineage (Fujita et al., 2012).”
The BPP program for species tree estimation and species delimitation (2015, methodology): “See Fujita et al. (2012) and Carstens et al. (2013) for reviews on species delimitation methods using genetic sequence data.”
How to fail at species delimitation (2013, methodology): “…to do our part to document and protect biodiversity, it is incumbent on researchers to design and conduct effective investigations into species boundaries (Fujita et al. 2012), to trust in their data and results and to follow through on these results by proposing the requisite taxonomic revisions.”
