#Section 7: Recombinant DNA technology and Other Tools in Biotechnology
  1. A test devised specifically for MP trees is called the Kishino–Hasegawa (KH) test.
  2. A frequently used statistical test for ML trees is the Shimodaira–Hasegawa (SH) test (likelihood ratio test).
  3. The Bayesian method efficiently evaluates phylogenetic trees using MCMC resampling, assigning posterior probabilities to nodes without bootstrapping. 
  4. ackknifing is a resampling method where half of the sites in a dataset are randomly removed, and trees are reconstructed from these shorter datasets.
