beast

Software Description:

BEAST is a cross-platform program for Bayesian analysis of molecular sequences using MCMC. It is entirely orientated towards rooted, time-measured phylogenies inferred using strict or relaxed molecular clock models. It can be used as a method of reconstructing phylogenies but is also a framework for testing evolutionary hypotheses without conditioning on a single tree topology. BEAST uses MCMC to average over tree space so that each tree is weighted proportional to its posterior probability. We include a simple to use user-interface program for setting up standard analyses and a suite of programs for analyzing the results.
