else there is a new program on the block called hy-phy (=hypothesis testing using phylogenetics).
The easiest is probably to run the analyses on the authors datamonkey.

Selected analyses also can be performed online at http://www.datamonkey.org/
Example testing for dN/dS in two partitions of the data --John’s dataset
Set up two partitions, define model for each, optimize likelihood
Example testing for dN/dS in two partitions of the data --John’s dataset
The dN/dS ratios for the two partitions are different.
Save Likelihood Functionthenselect as alternative
Example testing for dN/dS in two partitions of the data --John’s dataset
Set up null hypothesis, i.e.:
The two dN/dS are equal
(to do, select both rows and then click the define as equal button on top)

e and save asNull-hyp.
Example testing for dN/dS in two partitions of the data --John’s dataset
After selecting LRT (= Likelihood Ratio test), the console displays the result, i.e., the beginning and end of the sequence alignment have significantly different dN/dS ratios.
Example testing for dN/dS in two partitions of the data –John’s dataset
Alternatively, especially if the the two models are not nested, one can set up two different windows with the same dataset:
Model 1
Model 2
Example testing for dN/dS in two partitions of the data --John’s dataset
Simulation under model 2, evalutation under model 1, calculate LRCompare real LR to distribution from simulated LR values. The result might look something like this or this
Green - Type A tyrRSRed - Type B tyrRSBlue - Both types of tyrRS
16S rRNA phylogeny colored 16S rRNA phylogeny colored according to tyrRS type according to tyrRS type
Under the assumption that both types were present in the bacterial ancestor and explaining the observed distribution only through gene loss:
133 taxa and 58 gene loss events, 34 losses of type A, 23 of type B

• Generated 1000 bootstrap trees under loss-only model
Real data under HGT model
Simulated under "loss-only" model; likelihood under HGT model

EVERYTHING CAN BE TURNED INTP A HAIRBALL!
The hairball is the icon of systems biology (as the DNA double helix was the icon for molecular biology)
Human proteome, and its binding interactions. Depiction of the data as a hairball, an increasingly familiar image in the biology literature.
Usually "Scale free" only within limits
Comparison between the degree distribution of scale-free networks (O) and random graphs (☐) having the same number of nodes and edges.
