Revisiting the historical scenario of a disease dissemination using genetic data and Approximate Bayesian Computation methodology: The case of Pseudocercospora fijiensis invasion in Africa
Abstract:The reconstruction of geographic and demographic scenarios of dissemination for invasive pathogens of crops is a key step toward improving the management of emerging infectious diseases. Nowadays, the reconstruction of biological invasions typically uses the information of both genetic and historical information to test for different hypotheses of colonization. The Approximate Bayesian Computation framework and its recent Random Forest development (ABC‐RF) have been successfully used in evolutionary biology to… Show more
