Bioinformatics: video tutorial: Using PHYLIP to build phylogenetic trees
As you know PHYLIP or (PHYlogeny Inference Package) is a set of programs that can construct phylogenetic trees.
To understand what phylogenetic trees can do for you you can read this post HERE.
In order to build phylogenetic trees you have to prepare a set of sequences in a multiple sequence alignment.
In this video tutorial i'm going to use one of the 3 methods in building phylogenetic trees, which is distance methods by using a program included in PHYLIP called protdist.
This video tutorial have 2 parts:
Part 1:
Part 2:
Any questions, comment

Wow, a retro phylogenetics post! These methods were very popular in the 1990s, but maybe your tutorials should include some slightly more modern approaches?
OK thanx for the comment, but this tutorial is a basic tutorial that describes distance methods, i know that most bioinformaticians use Likelyhood methods which are the most accurate, but some friends asked me to post a basic phylogenetic trees building method. if you have any suggestions don't hesitate, thanx.
you ar the best man.................
I want to be ur student...............
You are welcome my friend, any time.
Hello,
Thank you for the above video - was very helpful.
Can you make a video on the more accurate methods of forming a phylogenetic tree? That will be great. Kind regards.
Its nicely made n I really liked it so much.It could have ben better if the results and interpretation is more elaborate
