The Phylogenetic Handbook is a broad introduction to the theory and practice of nucleotide and amino acid phylogenetic analysis. As an unique feature of this book, each chapter contains an extensive practical section, in which step-by-step exercises on real data sets introduce the most widely used phylogeny software including CLUSTAL, PHYLIP, PAUP*, DAMBE, TREE-PUZZLE, TREECON, SplitsTree, TreeView, SimPlot, MEGA2, PAML and BOOTSCANNING. The book provides a strong background in basic topics: the use of sequence databases, alignment algorithms, tree-building methods, estimation of genetic distances, and testing models of evolution.

The Phylogenetic Handbook provides a broad introduction to the theory and practice of phylogenetic analysis. It provides a strong grounding in basic topics including the use of sequence databases, alignment algorithms, tree-building methods, estimation of genetic distances, and testing evolutionary models. Each chapter begins with the theory, followed by a practical section, explaining the application of some of the most widely-used phylogeny software including CLUSTAL, PHYLIP, PAUP*, DAMBE, TREE-PUZZLE, TREECON, SplitsTree, TreeView, SimPlot, MEGA2, PAML, and BOOTSCANNING. An invaluable resource for graduate students and professionals in the field of molecular evolution.
"This is a splendid book that does what it says on the cover and presents a practical approach to phylogeny with molecules. ...an excellent tutor for undergraduate or postgraduate study, or for anyone seeking to enter the field." Microbiology Today
"The practice sections throughout the book are exceptionally well-done, making this an extremely valuable feature of this book and one that distinguishes it from the few other phylogenetic texts available...this volume is an excellent resource for phylogenetic analysis for those who are both new and experienced in molecular evolutionary techniques." American Journal of Human Biology
