Evaluation of the models handling heterotachy in phylogenetic inference
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The evolutionary rate at a given homologous position varies across time. When sufficiently pronounced, this phenomenon – called heterotachy – may produce artefactual phylogenetic reconstructions under the commonly used models of sequ...
