Gene tree topologies have proven a powerful data source for various tasks, including species tree inference and species delimitation. Consequently, methods for computing probabilities of gene trees within species trees have been developed and widely used in probabilistic inference frameworks. All these methods assume an underlying multispecies coalescent model. However, when reticulate evolutionary events such as hybridization occur, these methods are inadequate, as they do not account for such events. Methods that account for both hybridization and deep coalescence in computing the probability of a gene tree topology currently exist for very limited cases. However, no such methods exist for general cases, owing primarily to the fact that it is currently unknown how to compute the probability of a gene tree topology within the branches of a phylogenetic network. Here we present a novel method for computing the probability of gene tree topologies on phylogenetic networks and demonstrate its application to the inference of hybridization in the presence of incomplete lineage sorting. We reanalyze a Saccharomyces species data set for which multiple analyses had converged on a species tree candidate. Using our method, though, we show that an evolutionary hypothesis involving hybridization in this group has better support than one of strict divergence. A similar reanalysis on a group of three Drosophila species shows that the data is consistent with hybridization. Further, using extensive simulation studies, we demonstrate the power of gene tree topologies at obtaining accurate estimates of branch lengths and hybridization probabilities of a given phylogenetic network. Finally, we discuss identifiability issues with detecting hybridization, particularly in cases that involve extinction or incomplete sampling of taxa. Species trees depict how species split and diverge. Within the branches of a species tree, gene trees, which depict the evolutionary histories of different genomic regions in the species, grow. Evolutionary analyses of the genomes of closely related organisms have highlighted the phenomenon that gene trees may disagree with each other as well as with the species tree that contains them due to deep coalescence. Furthermore, for several groups of organisms, hybridization plays an important role in their evolution and diversification. This evolutionary event also results in gene tree incongruence and gives rise to a species phylogeny that is a network. Thus, inferring the evolutionary histories of groups of organisms where hybridization is known, or suspected, to play an evolutionary role requires dealing simultaneously with hybridization and other sources of gene tree incongruence. Currently, no methods exist for doing this with general scenarios of hybridization. In this paper, we propose the first method for this task and demonstrate its performance. We revisit the analysis of a set of yeast species and another of Drosophila species, and show that evolutionary histories involving hybridization have higher support than the strictly diverging evolutionary histories estimated when not incorporating hybridization in the analysis.
