First Tutorial | BEAST Documentation Running BEAST for the first time This tutorial will guide you through running BEAST and some of its accessory programs to do a simple phylogenetic analysis If you haven’t already, download and install BEAST following these instructions
FigTree | BEAST Documentation FigTree is a program for viewing trees, including summary information produced by TreeAnnotator, and producing publication quality figures
BEAST X (v10. 5. 0-beta5) released | BEAST Documentation BEAST X is the new name for BEAST v1 project and the first release version of this is v10 5 0 which supersedes v1 10 4 in the old version system From now on we will use the full major, minor, bugfix style of semantic versioning
BEAST v1. 10. 4 released | BEAST Documentation BEAST v1 10 4 fixes a bug when trying to specify a burnin on the command line version of LogCombiner It also introduces two new command line options specific to BEAGLE v3 1 (-beagle_threading_off and -beagle_thread_count)
Markov Jumps and Rewards | BEAST Documentation This realisation includes all the transitions (Markov jumps) between states along phylogenetic branches and the time (Markov rewards) spent in the states between two transitions This tutorial discusses how to estimate such quantities using stochastic mapping techniques implemented in BEAST
How to create custom substitution models | BEAST Documentation Custom substitution models BEAUti provides a fairly standard selection of substitution models, but BEAST can deal with a wide range of possible models through XML specification This can be done by imposing assumptions on the general time-reversible model (GTR; Tavaré, 1986) of nucleotide substitution, or on the HKY (1985) model of nucleotide substitution This how-to guide provides XML code
