Phylogenetic Analysis by Maximum Likelihood (PAML)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
PAML is a program package for phylogenetic analyses of DNA or protein
|
||
|
|
sequences using maximum likelihood, and is maintained and distributed
|
||
|
|
by Ziheng Yang.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Possible uses of the programs are:
|
||
|
|
- Estimation of branch lengths in a phylogenetic tree and parameters
|
||
|
|
in the evolutionary model such as the transition/transversion rate
|
||
|
|
ratio, the shape parameter of the gamma distribution for variable
|
||
|
|
evolutionary rates among sites, and rate parameters for different
|
||
|
|
genes;
|
||
|
|
- Test of hypotheses concerning sequence evolution, such as rate
|
||
|
|
constancy and independence among nucleotide or amino acid sites, rate
|
||
|
|
constancy among lineages (the molecular clock), and homogeneity of
|
||
|
|
evolutionary process in multiple genes;
|
||
|
|
- Calculation of substitution rates at sites;
|
||
|
|
- Reconstruction of ancestral nucleotide or amino acid sequences;
|
||
|
|
- Simulation of nucleotide, codon, and amino acid sequence data sets;
|
||
|
|
- Phylogenetic tree reconstruction by maximum likelihood and Bayesian methods.
