SNAPP Description
SNAPP is a free and open-source implementation of an MCMC based method for inferring species (population) trees and demographics from unlinked SNP data. SNAPP (SNP and AFLP Package for Phylogenetic analysis) is a suite o tools for evolutionary inference from molecular sequences. SNAPP uses a complex and powerful input format (specified in XML) to describe the evolutionary model. This has advantages in terms of flexibility in that the developers of SNAPP do not have to try and predict every analysis that researchers may wish to perform and explicitly provide an option for doing it. However, this flexibility means it is possible to construct models that don't perform well under the Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) inference framework used. SNAPP is cross-platform and it works on Mac OS X, Windows and Linux. Binaries for the Windows and Linux platforms are available on the project's homepage.Detailed instructions on how to install and use the SNAPP utility on your Mac are available HERE.
