Book Description
Phylogenetic Trees Made Easy helps beginners get started in creatingphylogenetic trees from protein or nucleic acid sequence data. Althoughaimed at molecular and cell biologists who may not be familiar withphylogenetic or evolutionary theory, it also serves students who may befamiliar with phylogenetic theory but are unfamiliar with the toolsused to apply that theory. The reader is led, step by step, throughidentifying sequences that are homologous to a sequence of interest,downloading these sequences from databases, creating multiplealignments, and using several different methods to construct trees."Learn More" boxes present background on the various concepts andmethods, and an accompanying CD and Website provide files needed forworking through the tutorials in the text. Key changes to the SecondEdition include:
* discussion and screen shots updated to reflect current software versions
* all software discussed available for Macintosh, PC, and UNIX platforms
* detailed discussion of PAUP* for both Macintosh and Windows
* inclusion of PHYLIP as an alternative to PAUP*
* addition of "Advanced Topics," including constructing deepphylogenies from protein structure comparisons, ancestral sequencereconstruction, and measuring positive selection as evidence ofadaptive evolution Every copy of the Second Edition includes a CD withcurrent Windows and Macintosh beta versions of PAUP*. Thesetime-limited versions will allow semester-length use of this popularsoftware, giving students hands-on experience in tree-building as theywork through the text.
