MrBayes is a program for the Bayesian estimation of phylogeny.
|
|
|
|
Bayesian inference of phylogeny is based upon a quantity called the
|
|
posterior probability distribution of trees, which is the probability of a
|
|
tree conditioned on the observations. The conditioning is accomplished
|
|
using Bayes's theorem. The posterior probability distribution of trees is
|
|
impossible to calculate analytically; instead, MrBayes uses a simulation
|
|
technique called Markov chain Monte Carlo (or MCMC) to approximate the
|
|
posterior probabilities of trees.
