LSX: automated reduction of gene-specific lineage evolutionary rate heterogeneity for multi-gene phylogeny inference

Abstract Background Lineage rate heterogeneity can be a major source of bias, especially in multi-gene phylogeny inference. We had previously tackled this issue by developing LS3, a data subselection algorithm that, by removing fast-evolving sequences in a gene-specific manner, identifies subsets of...
