Archaeopteryx is an interactive computer software program, written in Java, for viewing, editing, and analyzing phylogenetic trees. This type of program can be used for a variety of analyses of molecular data sets, but is particularly designed for phylogenomics. Besides tree description formats with limited expressiveness (such as Newick/New Hamphshire, Nexus), ATV also implements the phyloXML format. Archaeopteryx is the successor to the tree viewer ATV.
Famous quotes containing the word tree:
“a big picture of K. Marx with an axe,
Where I cut off one it will never grow again.
O Karl would it were true
Id put my saw to work for you
& the wicked social tree would fall right down.”
—Gary Snyder (b. 1930)
