PhyML is a software that estimates maximum likelihood phylogenies
|
|
from alignments of nucleotide or amino acid sequences. It provides a
|
|
wide range of options that were designed to facilitate standard
|
|
phylogenetic analyses. The main strengths of PhyML lies in the large
|
|
number of substitution models coupled to various options to search
|
|
the space of phylogenetic tree topologies, going from very fast and
|
|
efficient methods to slower but generally more accurate approaches.
|
|
It also implements two methods to evaluate branch supports in a sound
|
|
statistical framework (the non-parametric bootstrap and the
|
|
approximate likelihood ratio test).
|
|
|
|
This also builds MPI (using multiple processors) version of PhyML, which
|
|
requires 'openmpi'. Other additional programs built by the script are
|
|
Phyrex and PhyTime. If you do not want them to be built in the package,
|
|
check the SlackBuild script.
