Hidden State Prediction: a modification of classic ancestral state reconstruction algorithms helps unravel complex symbioses

Complex symbioses between animal or plant hosts and their associated microbiotas can involve thousands of species and millions of genes. Because of the number of interacting partners, it is often impractical to study all organisms or genes in these host-microbe symbioses individually. Yet new phylo...
