JSpecies 1.2.1 / JSpeciesWS – Measure the Probability if two Genomes belonging to the Same Species

JSpecies 1.2.1 / JSpeciesWS

:: DESCRIPTION

JSpecies is an easy to use, biologist-centric software designed to measure the probability if two genomes belonging to the same species or not.

JSpeciesWS is a quick and easy to use online service to measure the probability if two or more (draft) genomes belong to the same species or not by pairwise comparison of (1) their Average Nucleotide Identity (ANI) and/or (2) correlation indexes of their Tetra-nucleotide signatures

RootAnnotator 201402 – Computes Root Posterior Probabilities given a sample of Rooted Trees

RootAnnotator 201402

:: DESCRIPTION

RootAnnotator computes root posterior probabilities. For this, it makes use of posterior collections of trees generated under clock models (e.g. .nexus files such as those generated by BEAST or MrBayes), from which branches wearing the root are identified and counted.
