phytools: Phylogenetic Tools for Comparative Biology (and Other Things)

---

You have reached phytools.org - the old development page for the phytools R package (Revell 2012).

1. The phytools development page is now on on GitHub. For more information, see the phytools GitHub page: https://github.com/liamrevell/phytools.
2. Lots of information about phytools is available on the phytools blog: https://blog.phytools.org.
3. If you are looking for a previous course webpage, please contact me for information on how to access the page.
4. The old phytools webpage can be viewed here.
5. I have posted various shiny web interfaces for teaching population genetics & evolutionary biology here.
6. I have developed an R-based excess mortality & COVID-19 explorer web application. It can be accessed here.
7. Lastly, my lab is building a web interface for phylogenetic comparative analysis. The development version of this site can be viewed here.

Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions about phytools or this page:
