About: Relative apparent synapomorphy analysis

An Entity of Type: software, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Relative apparent synapomorphy analysis, or RASA, is a method that aims to determine whether a given character is shared between taxa due to shared ancestry or due to convergence. A synapomorphy is a shared trait found among two or more taxa and their most recent common ancestor, whose ancestor in turn does not possess the trait. RASA assigns a score to the character based on its potential to be informative.
