"An H-tree is a formal model of evolutionary scenario. It can be used to represent any processes with gene duplication and loss, horizontal gene transfer (HGT) and speciation events. The model of H-trees, introduced in [26], is an extension of the duplication-loss model (DL-model). Similarly to its ancestor, it has a number of interesting mathematical and biological properties. It is, however, more computationally complex than the DL-model. In this paper, we primarily address the problem of inferring H-trees that are compatible with a given gene tree and a given phylogeny of species with HGTs. These results create a mathematical and computational foundation for a more general and practical problem of inferring HGTs from given gene and species trees with HGTs. We also demonstrate how our model can be used to support HGT hypotheses based on empirical data sets. © 2012 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg."
