- GenGIS: an application that allows users to combine digital map data with information about biological sequences collected from the environment. GenGIS provides a 3D graphical interface in which the user can navigate and explore the data, as well as a Python interface that allows easy scripting of statistical analyses using the Rpy libraries. (PSBVM)
 
- PICA: genotype-phenotype data mining software (G).
 
- rSPR: software to calculate rooted subtree-prune-and-regraft distances and rooted agreement forests. (PL)
 
- STAMP: a software package for analyzing metagenomic profiles that promotes ‘best practices’ in choosing appropriate statistical techniques and reporting results. (SMV)
 
- Radié: a tool that allows characters to be visualized against the background of a phylogenetic tree. The software includes several different visual and numeric representations of the ‘convexity’ of a given character, in other words the extent to which different character traits form distinct groups within the tree. (PV)
 
- EvolSimulator: a simulation test bed for hypotheses of genome evolution. (PL)
 
- EEEP (Efficient Evaluation of Edit Paths): software to infer putative pathways of lateral genetic transfer by comparing gene trees against a rooted reference tree (PL)
 
- WOOF: a tool designed to rigourously apply the principle of visual alignment validation. (SA)
 
- GANN: a machine learning method designed with the complexities of transcriptional regulation in mind.
 
- VAREB [to be added]
 
Web Services
- SeqMonitor
 - MOAMap
 - MOA (to be added)
 - Visual MOA (to be added)
 - MANUEL
 
Datasets
- Datasets used in GenGIS (Parks et al., Genome Research 2009)
 - STAMP datasets
 - Lateral genetic transfer in 144 genomes dataset (Beiko et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. 2005)
 - Simulated data for 'The impact of reticulate evolution on genome phylogeny' (Beiko et al., Systematic Biology 2008) [to be added]
