Selective Sampling of Species and Fossils Influences Age Estimates Under the Fossilized Birth–Death Model
The fossilized birth–death (FBD) model allows the estimation of species divergence times from molecular and fossil information in a coherent framework of diversification and fossil sampling. Some assumptions of the FBD model, however, are difficult to meet in phylogenetic analyses of highly diverse...
