It provides +classes and functions for the simulation, processing, and manipulation +of phylogenetic trees and character matrices, and supports the reading +and writing of phylogenetic data in a range of formats, such as NEXUS, +NEWICK, NeXML, Phylip, FASTA, etc. Application scripts for performing +some useful phylogenetic operations, such as data conversion and tree +posterior distribution summarization, are also distributed and installed +as part of the libary. DendroPy can thus function as a stand-alone +library for phylogenetics, a component of more complex multi-library +phyloinformatic pipelines, or as a scripting "glue" that assembles and +drives such pipelines. + +If you use this library either in whole or in part in your analysis, +or use any code derived from it, please cite it as: +Sukumaran, J. and Mark T. Holder. 2010. DendroPy: A Python library for +phylogenetic computing. Bioinformatics 26: 1569-1571. |
