  • This is a program built to compute phylogenetic trees under the non stationary, non homogeneous model of Galtier and Gouy (1998). As such, it provides estimates of the G+C contents of ancient sequences. It uses the algorithmic structure of PHYML adapted to the rooted and irreversible case. This algorithm has been described in an article "Efficient Likelihood Computations with Non-Reversible Models of Evolution", accepted for publication in Systematic Biology.
