Title: Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Phylogenetic Trees Is Consistent When Substitution Rates Vary According to the Invariable Sites plus Gamma Distribution
Abstract: Maximum likelihood estimation of phylogenetic trees from nucleotide sequences is completely consistent when nucleotide substitution is governed by the general time reversible (GTR) model with rates that vary over sites according to the invariable sites plus gamma (I + γ) distribution.
