Phyutility (fyoo-til-i-te) is a command line program that performs simple analyses or modifications on both trees and data matrices. Makes use of JADE (PEBLS) and JEBL libraries. Please see the [NEWS] page for info concerning updates, etc.
See [NEWS] and download the new release for amino acid acceptance in the concatenate and cleaning functions (use the -aa argument in -clean and -concat functions).
Please use this citation when using Phyutility [http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/short/24/5/715 Smith, S. A. and Dunn, C. W. (2008) Phyutility: a phyloinformatics tool for trees, alignments, and molecular data. Bioinformatics. 24: 715-716]
Currently it performs the following functions (to suggest another feature, submit an Issue and use the label Type-Enhancement) :
Trees
- rerooting
- pruning
- type conversion
- consensus
- leaf stability
- lineage movement
- tree support
Data Matrices
- concatenate alignments
- genbank parsing
- trimming alignments
- search NCBI
- fetch NCBI
please reroot your trees before performing the leaf stability, lineage movement, or consensus functions -- unrooted functions for these will be incorporated ASAP
