Software: PhyloSort: a phylogenetic sorting tool
Submitted by Ahmed Moustafa; posted on Friday, February 08, 2008

PhyloSort (http://phylosort.sourceforge.net) is an open-source Java tool to sort phylogenetic trees by searching for subtrees that contain a monophyletic group of interest defined by operational taxonomic units.
Version 1.3 has been released and it is freely available as source code and binaries (Windows, Mac and UNIX).
The manuscript that describes the implementation of PhyloSort and its application to estimate the contribution of cyanobacteria (photosynthetic bacteria) to the nuclear genome of photosynthetic eukaryotes (e.g. plants and algae) through endosymbiotic gene transfer has been published at BMC Evolutionary Biology (http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/8/6).
