Host repertoire in RevBayes


The model of host repertoire evolution (Braga et al. 2020) was designed to infer ancestral ecological interactions. The original version of the model was implemented in RevBayes. Here's a tutorial for analysing your data.


In this implementation you can:

  • Estimate ancestral hosts for parasite clades
  • Estimate parameter values such as rate of host gain and loss
  • Test whether it is easier to gain phylogeneticaly close hosts than distant ones (or any other distance measurement)
