Seq-Gen: an application for the Monte Carlo simulation of DNA sequence evolution along phylogenetic trees

Abstract

Seq-Gen can be obtained by WWW from http:/(/)evolve.zoo.ox.ac.uk/Seq-Gen/seq-gen.html++ + or by FTP from ftp:/(/)evolve.zoo.ox.ac.uk/packages/Seq-Gen/. The package includes the source code, manual and example files. An Apple Macintosh version is available from the same sites.
