This will be a brief demonstration covering some of the new(ish) phylogenetic tools that are emerging on the web. Specifically we'll be covering:
Phylota browser
Mike Sanderson's database of Genbank-derived clusters. Really useful for mining phylogenetic datasets from Genbank.
CIPRes Portal
The Cipres Portal provides servers to carry out several phylogenetic inference methods (particularly methods for analyzing large datasets). Available methods include maximum parsimony (the ratchet and Rec-I-DCM3), maximum likelihood (RAxML and GARLI), bayes (MrBayes, though this implementation is still a little buggy).
iTOL
A pretty handy tree display webapp that allows various tree annotations.
