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.

rRNA phylogeny – Phylogenetic Analysis (using Phylip) of rRNA

rRNA phylogeny

:: DESCRIPTION

rRNA phylogeny is a program package to phylogenetic analyses (using Phylip) of rRNA using a matrix of empirical substitution rates and the OTRNA model.

4to20 translates DNA/RNA sequences to rRNA-coded sequences in 20-letter code
20to4 translates rRNA-coded sequences to 4-letter code
nadist performs Distance analysis using the OTRNA model and gamma-distributed rates.
rRNAdist, rRNAml, rnaml: modified versions of protdist, protml, protmlk from PHYLIP to use the rRNA matrices.
etseqgen: modification of PSeq-gen to use the PMB model or the Bacterial SSU rRNA model.

BYPASSR 1.0 / BYPASSR-DEGR 1.0.2 – Bayesian Phylogenetic Analysis of Site-Specific Rate / with a model for Post Mortem Modification

BYPASSR 1.0 / BYPASSR-DEGR 1.0.2

:: DESCRIPTION

BYPASSR is the implementation of a new method for inferring branch lengths and site-specific substitution rates from nucleotide sequences. It makes use of the Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo method and of the uniformization (randomization) technique to calculate sequence substitution probabilities in complicated DNA substitution models such as general time reversible model (GTR).

DISPAN – Genetic Distance and Phylogenetic Analysis

DISPAN

:: DESCRIPTION

DISPAN (Genetic Distance and Phylogenetic Analysis) computes (1) average heterozygosity and its standard error for each population, (2) gene diversity (Ht) and its associate parameters, Hs, and Gst (Nei 1973), (3) standard genetic distances (D) between populations (Nei 1972), (4) standard errors of standard genetic distances (Nei 1978), (5) DA distances between populations (Nei et al. 1983). It also constructs phylogenetic trees by using the neighbor-joining (NJ) method (Saitou and Nei 1987) and the unweighted pair group-method with arithmetic mean (UPGMA) (Sneath and Sokal 1973) from matrices of either D or DA distances. Bootstrap tests (Efron 1982, Felsenstein 1985) for these trees can be performed

RESTDATA – Restriction Data and Phylogenetic Analysis

RESTDATA

:: DESCRIPTION

RESTDATA computes (1) the numbers of nucleotide substitutions per site for pairs of DNA sequences and their standard errors (Nei and Tajima 1983) for the restriction site data, and (2) for the restriction fragment data estimates the numbers of nucleotide substitutions per site for pairs of DNA sequences (Nei and Li 1979). It also constructs phylogenetic trees (dendrograms) by using the neighbor-joining (NJ) method (Saitou and Nei 1987) and the unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean (UPGMA) (Sneath and Sokal 1973) from estimates of the numbers of nucleotide substitutions. Bootstrap tests (Efron 1982, Felsenstein 1985) for these trees can be performed by resampling restriction enzymes.
