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).

NOTE 1: This also builds Phyrex and the MPI (using multiple processors)
|
|
|
|
|
version of PhyML. The executable of the latter is called phyml-mpi and
|
|
|
|
|
requires openmpi. If you do not want them to be built in the package,
|
|
|
|
|
check the SlackBuild script.

|
NOTE 2: PhyTime used to be part of the PhyML package. However, PhyTime
|
|
|
|
|
from the latest releases of PhyML does not build anymore. meanwhile,
|
|
|
|
|
PhyTime is available separately, which installs the latest version that
|
|
|
|
|
builds.
