Comparing sequences without using alignments: application to HIV/SIV subtyping
Background: In general, the construction of trees is based on sequence alignments. This procedure, however, leads to loss of informationwhen parts of sequence alignments (for inst...

PhyloNet: a software package for analyzing and reconstructing reticulate evolutionary relationships
Background: Phylogenies, i.e., the evolutionary histories of groups of taxa, play a major role in representing the interrelationships among biological entities. Many software tool...
