Abstract Synopsis

  • Several recent extensions to implied weighting in TNT improve the analysis of combined morphological and molecular data, especially when datasets have many missing entries or are large.
  • A new method allows applying implied weighting selectively (e.g., only to morphological characters) while keeping others (like molecules) at constant weight, enhancing analysis flexibility.
  • The approach also introduces ways to weight entire data partitions (like genes or codon positions) based on their average homoplasy, and it addresses issues with uninformative characters and missing data by adjusting weighting functions accordingly.]
