DeCoLT
Detection of Co-evolution with Lateral gene Transfer
Keywords: Bioinformatics - Evolution
Scientific Description
The software DeCoLT computes adjacencies (or any type of relation, like regulation, interaction, functional relationships) between ancestral genes from gene phylogenies reconciled with a species phylogeny according to duplications, losses and lateral gene transfer. It takes as input a species tree a set of extant genes a set of exant adjacencies (relations) between extant genes and reconciled gene trees which leaves are the extant genes. It outputs ancestral species, genes, and adjacencies. It also highlights the duplications or transfers involving several genes.
Functional Description
The software DeCoLT computes adjacencies (or any type of relation, like regulation, interaction, functional relationships) between ancestral genes from gene phylogenies reconciled with a species phylogeny according to duplications, losses and lateral gene transfer.
