codonPhyML

codonPhyML uses Markovian codon models of evolution in phylogeny reconstruction. Given a set of species characterized by their DNA sequences as input, codonPhyML will return the phylogenetic tree that best describes their evolutionary relationship. Our paper describing codonPhyML has been published in the journal "Molecular Biology and Evolution" (MBE). For more details, follow the link: http://mbe.oxfordjournals.org/content/30/6/1270. codonPhyML is on the cover of MBE! Check this out (August 2013): http://mbe.oxfordjournals.org/content/30/8.toc.

For the multimodel version of CodonPhyML, please use the 'codonphyml_multi.tgz' tarball.
