DOI: 10.1002/ece3.4888
Abstract: Abstract Crayfish can be used as model organisms in phylogeographic and divergence time studies if reliable calibrations are available. This study presents a comprehensive investigation into the phylogeography of the European stone crayfish (Austropotamobius torrentium)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ympev.2019.106646
Abstract: Incomplete lineage sorting (ILS) can lead to biased divergence time estimates. To explore if and how ILS has influenced the results of a recent study of worldwide phylogeny of three-spined sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus), we estimated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/sysbio/syx074
Abstract: Divergence time estimation-the calibration of a phylogeny to geological time-is an integral first step in modeling the tempo of biological evolution (traits and lineages). However, despite increasingly sophisticated methods to infer divergence times from molecular… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/pala.12443
Abstract: The molecular clock currently provides the only viable means of establishing realistic evolutionary timescales but it remains unclear how best to calibrate divergence time analyses. Calibrations can be applied to the tips and/ or to… read more here.
