BEAST¶
BEAST is a tool for Bayesian phylogenetic analysis.
Is BEAST2 a new version of BEAST?
No.
Although BEAST and BEAST2 achieve a similar goal, BEAST and BEAST2 are developed independently.
Hence,
- there are things BEAST can do that BEAST2 cannot, and vice versa
- one cannot create a BEAST XML file and expect BEAST2 to be able to run it, and vice versa
Run Tracer¶
Tracer is a tool to analyse the results of a BEAST (or BEAST2) run.
