Chromosome-scale gene linkages support ctenophores (comb jellies) as the sister group to all animals. They share ancestral metazoan patterns with unicellular eukaryotes, unlike sponges, bilaterians, & cnidarians, which show derived chromosomal rearrangements—robust evidence for this phylogeny.

This research develops a method to systematically explore admixture graphs (AGs), integrating non-genetic data via topology constraints. Findings show many alternative models fit better than published AGs, suggesting that strong population history claims require shared topological features.

On the limits of fitting complex models of population history to f-statistics
Many published findings about population history that rely on inference of admixture graph models fitted to f-statistics are not robust since the method is generally inappropriate for extracting new i...
