RRTree: relative-rate tests between groups of sequences on a phylogenetic tree.

RRTree is a user-friendly program for comparing substitution rates between lineages of protein or DNA sequences, relative to an outgroup, through relative rate tests. Genetic diversity is taken into account through use of several sequences, and phylogenetic relations are integrated by topological weighting. The ANSI C source code of RRTree, and compiled versions for Macintosh, MS-DOS/Windows, SUN Solaris, and CGI, are freely available at http://pbil.univ-lyon1.fr/software/rrtree.html [email protected]
