LVB: parsimony and simulated annealing in the search for phylogenetic trees

D. Barker

School of Animal and Microbial Sciences, University of Reading, Whiteknights, P.O. Box 228, Reading, Berkshire, RG6 6AJ, UK

Received on February 14, 2003 ; revised on June 16, 2003 ; accepted on August 5, 2003

Summary: The program LVB seeks parsimonious phylogenies from nucleotide alignments, using the simulated annealing heuristic. LVB runs fast and gives high quality results.
