Morphological Evolution in the Mulberry Family (Moraceae) (2009, methodology): “Additionally, we reconstructed ancestral character states using maximum likelihood as implemented in the MultiState ( Pagel 1999 ; Pagel et al. 2004 ) module of BayesTraits (available from www.evolution.rdg.ac.uk ).”
Marine dispersal as a pre‐requisite for Gondwanan vicariance among elements of the galaxiid fish fauna (2012, methodology): “Numbers at nodes with a fish symbol represent the posterior probability that the ancestor represented at that node was diadromous, based on the method of Pagel et al. (2004), while fish symbols next to contemporary lineages indicate the presence of diadromy (question mark denotes uncertain life hist”
Global circulation patterns of seasonal influenza viruses vary with antigenic drift (2015, positive): “These trees were treated as independent draws from the posterior space of trees when subsequently used in the robust counting and phylogeographic analyses 29 .”

Integrating influenza antigenic dynamics with molecular evolution (2013, methodology): “For the present analysis, a two-step approach was taken to sample phylogenies, where a posterior sample of phylogenies was gathered using sequence data and then, in the cartographic analysis, trees from this set were randomly proposed and accepted following the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm [29].”
TreeGraph 2: Combining and visualizing evidence from different phylogenetic analyses (2010, background): “In addition, the frequently reported results from topological tests (e.g., [4]) or tracing of ancestral character states (e.g., [5]) add further importance to being able to assign a variety of numbers and graphical labels to tree nodes.”
Estimating ancestral distributions of lineages with uncertain sister groups: a statistical approach to Dispersal–Vicariance Analysis and a case using Aesculus L. (Sapindaceae) including fossils (2009, methodology): “We used the floating node of Pagel et al. (2004) in cases where crown clades contained fossil species.”
