Phylogenetic graph structures used in empirical and theoretical analysis have expanded beyond trees to more general directed acyclic graphs including networks and forests. Several methods to reconcile multiple such graphs are presented and discussed here, extending existing consensus and supertree techniques to form a set of phylogenetic supergraph methods. These graphs can be used as the summary of analytical results, or as heuristic initial graphs for further phylogenetic analysis.

系统发育超图

用于经验和理论分析的系统发育图结构已经从树扩展到更一般的有向无环图，包括网络和森林。这里介绍和讨论了协调多个此类图的几种方法，扩展了现有的共识和超树技术以形成一组系统发育超图方法。这些图可用作分析结果的总结，或用作进一步系统发育分析的启发式初始图。
