Analyses of Phylogenetics and Evolution

Description

ape provides functions for reading, writing, manipulating, analysing, and simulating phylogenetic trees and DNA sequences, computing DNA distances, translating into AA sequences, estimating trees with distance-based methods, and a range of methods for comparative analyses and analysis of diversification. Functionalities are also provided for programming new phylogenetic methods.

The complete list of functions can be displayed with library(help = ape).
