Bio::Tools::Run::Phylo::PAML::Evolver - Wrapper aroud the PAML program evolver

version 1.7.3

  use Bio::Tools::Run::Phylo::PAML::Evolver;
  my $evolver = Bio::Tools::Run::Phylo::PAML::Evolver->new();
  # Get a $tree object somehow
  $evolver->tree($tree);
  # FIXME: evolver generates a tree (first run with option 1 or 2)?
  # One or more alns are created
  my @alns = $evolver->run();
  ####
  # Or with all the data coming from a previous PAML run
  my $parser = Bio::Tools::Phylo::PAML->new
    (
     -file => "$inputfile",
    );
  my $result = $parser->next_result();
  my $tree = $result->next_tree;
  $evolver->tree($tree);
  my @codon_freqs = $result->get_CodonFreqs();
  $evolver->set_CodonFreqs(\@codon_freqs);
  my $val = $evolver->prepare();
  # FIXME: something similar for nucleotide frequencies:
  # Option (5) Simulate nucleotide data sets (use MCbase.dat)?
  # FIXME: something similar for aa parameters:
  # Option (7) Simulate amino acid data sets (use MCaa.dat)?
  # FIXME: With an initial RootSeq.txt

This is a wrapper around the evolver program of PAML (Phylogenetic Analysis by Maximum Likelihood) package of Ziheng Yang. See http://abacus.gene.ucl.ac.uk/software/paml.html for more information.

This module is more about generating the properl MCmodel.ctl file and will run the program in a separate temporary directory to avoid creating temp files all over the place.

Valid and default values for evolver programs are listed below. The default values are always the first one listed. These descriptions are essentially lifted from the example MCcodon.dat file and pamlDOC documentation provided by the author.

Stub:

option1 specifies something.

option2 specifies something else.

Please direct usage questions or support issues to the mailing list: bioperl-l@bioperl.org

rather than to the module maintainer directly. Many experienced and reponsive experts will be able look at the problem and quickly address it. Please include a thorough description of the problem with code and data examples if at all possible.
