Abstract
The iPlant Collaborative's Discovery Environment is a unified Web portal to many bioinformatics applications and analytical workflows, including various methods of phylogenetic analysis. This unit describes example protocols for phylogenetic analyses, starting at sequence retrieval from the GenBank sequence database, through to multiple sequence alignment inference and visualization of phylogenetic trees. Methods for extracting smaller sub?trees from very large phylogenies, and the comparative method of continuous ancestral character state reconstruction based on observed morphology of extant species related to their phylogenetic relationships, are also presented.

Figure 6.13.1 Layout of the Discovery Environment with Data, Analyses, and App windows as well as the notification area (E ) open in the main window (A ). Icons (B ) are used to open the corresponding windows. The toolbar of the Data window contains icons to perform folder options (C , from left to right: data import, create folder, rename folder, delete folder) and file actions (D ). View Image -
