[BiO BB] Tree/hierarchcal clustering software?

[Christophe Battail]

Hi,

I know two software that seems to correspond to your needs: visual 
interface, hierarchical agglomerative clustering implemented, choice 
between various similarity metrics, output visualized using a tree. 
Their names: Genesis or J-express (free to download).

cheers,
christophe
