Abstract
We outline an integrated approach to speciation and whole genome doubling (WGD) to resolve the occurrence of these events in phylogenetic analysis. We propose a more principled way of estimating the parameters of gene divergence and fractionation than the standard mixture of normals analysis. We formulate an algorithm for resolving data on local peaks in the distributions of duplicate gene similarities for a number of related genomes. We illustrate with a comprehensive analysis of WGD-origin duplicate gene data from the family Brassicaceae.
