Summary
Phylogeny
Debian Med phylogeny packages

This lists Debian packages related to phylogeny for use in life sciences. The purpose of this compilation of packages is to have a handy subset of from the med-bio metapackage which contains a lot more than only phylogeny related software.

Description

For a better overview of the project's availability as a Debian package, each head row has a color code according to this scheme:

If you discover a project which looks like a good candidate for Debian Med to you, or if you have prepared an unofficial Debian package, please do not hesitate to send a description of that project to the Debian Med mailing list

Version: 0.0.20100817-2

Patristic overcomes some logistic barriers to analysing signals in sequences. In additional to calculating patristic distances, it provides plots for any combination of matrices, calculates commonly used statistics, allows data such as isolation dates to be entered and reorders matrices with matching species or gene labels. It will be used to analyse rates of mutation and substitutional saturation and the evolution of viruses.

phylowin - wnpp
Graphical interface for molecular phylogenetic inference
License: unknown
Debian package not available

Phylo_win is a graphical colour interface for molecular phylogenetic inference. It performs neighbor-joining, parsimony and maximum likelihood methods and bootstrap with any of them. Many distances can be used including Jukes & Cantor, Kimura, Tajima & Nei, HKY, Galtier & Gouy (1995), LogDet for nucleotidic sequences, Poisson correction for protein sequences, Ka and Ks for codon sequences. Species and sites to include in the analysis are selected by mouse. Reconstructed trees can be drawn, edited, printed, stored and evaluated according to numerous criteria.

This program uses sources files from the Phylip program, which forbids its use for profit. Therfore, Phylo_win will unfortunately have to be distributed in contrib or non-free.
Remark of Debian Med team: Issuer of previous ITP said:

Because I could never figure out the license of Phylo_win, and because the upstream authors released SeaView 4, which provides similar functionalities, I will not package Phylo_win.

Probably it makes sense to remove this project from the prospective packages list.

License: MIT/X11
Debian package not available
Language: JavaScript

A concise viewer/editor for phylogenetic trees in the Newick format. The core functions are written in JavaScript, using the canvas tag proposed by HTML 5. No server side support is needed for rendering the picture and therefore you can grab this page together with knhx.js and canvastext.js to locally view your trees in a supported web browser.
