TreeView Alternatives
TreeView is described as 'Tree drawing software for Apple Macintosh and Windows' and is an app. There are six alternatives to TreeView for Mac, Windows, Linux and Java. The best alternative is Archaeopteryx, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like TreeView are FigTree, TreeView X, UGENE and Dendroscope.
Archaeopteryx is a software tool for the visualization, analysis, and editing of potentially large and highly annotated phylogenetic trees. Archaeopteryx (the successor to ATV) is entirely written in the Java programming language (it is based on the forester libraries).
FigTree is designed as a graphical viewer of phylogenetic trees and as a program for producing publication-ready figures. As with most of my programs, it was written for my own needs so may not be as polished and feature-complete as a commercial program.
TreeView X is an open source program to display phylogenetic trees on Linux, Unix, Mac OS X, and Windows platforms. It can read and display NEXUS and Newick format tree files (such as those output by PAUP*, .
UGENE is free open-source cross-platform bioinformatics software.
Researchers studying phylogenetic relationships need software that is able to visualize rooted phylogenetic trees and networks efficiently, increasingly of large datasets involving hundreds of thousands of taxa.
MacVector is a comprehensive Macintosh application that provides sequence editing, primer design, cloning and designing constructs, internet database searching, protein analysis, sequence confirmation, multiple sequence alignment, phylogenetic reconstruction, coding region...
