NGS-MC – Markovian Inference for Molecular Sequences Using NGS Data

NGS-MC

:: DESCRIPTION

NGS-MC is an R package which calculates the statistics and estimators in a Markov sequence model including the effective coverage, a chi-square statistic for k-words, normal approximation for every k-word, and five estimators for the order of Markov chain from NGS short read data.

BEAST 1.10.4 / BEAST2 2.6.1 – Bayesian Evolutionary Analysis of Molecular Sequences

BEAST 1.10.4 / BEAST2 2.6.1

:: DESCRIPTION

BEAST (Bayesian Evolutionary Analysis Samling Trees) is a cross-platform program for Bayesian MCMC analysis of molecular sequences. It is entirely orientated towards rooted, time-measured phylogenies inferred using strict or relaxed molecular clock models. It can be used as a method of reconstructing phylogenies but is also a framework for testing evolutionary hypotheses without conditioning on a single tree topology. BEAST uses MCMC to average over tree space, so that each tree is weighted proportional to its posterior probability. We include a simple to use user-interface program for setting up standard analyses and a suit of programs for analysing the results.

BEAST 2 is an open source cross-platform program for Bayesian MCMC phylogenetic analysis of molecular sequences.

GARLI 2.0.1 – Phylogenetic Analysis of Molecular Sequence data using the Maximum-likelihood Criterion

GARLI 2.0.1

:: DESCRIPTION

GARLI (Genetic Algorithm for Rapid Likelihood Inference) performs phylogenetic searches on aligned nucleotide, codon and amino acid data sets using the maximum likelihood criterion. On a practical level, the program is able to perform maximum-likelihood tree searches on large data sets in a number of hours.
