Following up on the previous posting on two programs that automate the inference process of Nested Clade Phylogeographic Analysis (NCPA), Panchal & Beaumont create a framework of automated NCPA. Their simulations show that NCPA has a high tendency for false positives. More research is needed, of course, on real-life data.

notes on evolutionary biology papers/programs and other stuff: a non-frequent approach
