| Shrnutí: | Reconciling gene trees with a species tree is a fundamental problem to understand the evolution of gene families. Many existing approaches reconcile each gene tree independently. However, it is well-known that the evolution of gene families is interconnected. In this paper, we extend a previous approach to reconcile a set of gene trees with a species tree based on segmental macro-evolutionary events, where segmental duplication events and losses are associated with cost
δ
and
λ
, respectively. We show that the problem is polynomial-time solvable when
δ
≤
λ
(via LCA-mapping), while if
δ
>
λ
the problem is NP-hard, even when
λ
=
0
and a single gene tree is given, solving a long standing open problem on the complexity of multi-gene reconciliation. On the positive side, we give a fixed-parameter algorithm for the problem, where the parameters are
δ
/
λ
and the number
d
of segmental duplications, of time complexity
O
⌈
δ
λ
⌉
d
·
n

δ
λ
. Finally, we demonstrate the usefulness of this algorithm on two previously studied real datasets: we first show that our method can be used to confirm or raise doubt on hypothetical segmental duplications on a set of 16 eukaryotes, then show how we can detect whole genome duplications in yeast genomes. |
