This project aims to provide a suite of theories, methods and software to enhance our understanding on how the generation of variation at molecular level is linked to the generation of species richness at lineage level. This new approach tests various ways that molecular changes are manifested as patterns of diversification, as revealed by genomic data analysed at the lineage level in phylogenetic studies. Expected outcomes of this project add to a growing body of evolutionary theory and provide practical phylogenetic tools for future analyses. These should benefit Australia by improving our understanding on the formation of Australia’s biodiversity hotspots.

该项目旨在提供一套理论、方法和软件，以增强我们对分子水平上的变异产生如何与谱系水平上的物种丰富度产生相联系的理解。这种新方法测试了分子变化表现为多样化模式的各种方式，正如在系统发育研究中在谱系水平上分析的基因组数据所揭示的那样。这个项目的预期成果增加了越来越多的进化理论，并为未来的分析提供实用的系统发育工具。这将使澳大利亚受益，因为我们更好地了解了澳大利亚生物多样性热点的形成。
