Landmark Data in Phylogenetics Analysis by Andrés Frankow is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This study analyzed 41 published data sets containing landmark data to assess how well phylogenetic trees derived from landmark data correspond to trees from independent evidence. The results showed that for most data sets, trees from landmark data corresponded poorly to reference trees, regardless of phylogenetic method. Further analysis found that the limited amount of landmark evidence, usually from just one or a few configurations, was the main cause of poor correspondence. When more landmark configurat
