Data Analysis
Web Sites |
- population genetic analyses, including a data editor, results display, and a series of analysis plugins (including standard pop gen summary stats, AMOVA, etc.) .
- Phylogeographic analysis which implements Templeton et al.'s (1995) statistical method for determining the relative contributions to population genetic structure from common ancestry and from current genetic exchange.
- Excoffier's software package for intra- and inter-population genetic data analysis.
- phylogenetic analysis of comparative data (runs in Windows platform). also check the program.
- Tools For Population Genetic Analysis (Windows95).
- population genetic software for relatedness and kinship analyses.
- Data Analysis in Molecular Biology and Evolution.
- Web-based sequence alignment program from EBI.
- Repository for tools for use in molecualr biology and biochemistry (including DNA analysis tools)
- Repository for tools for use in molecualr biology and biochemistry (including DNA analysis tools)
- Free software package from Perkin Elmer that lets you view ABI chromatograms (traces) for your sequences.
- Software package that can be used for sequence alignment and analysis
- Molecular Evolutionary Genetics Analysis: provides statistical and computational methods that parallel those presented in the book Molecular Evolution and Phylogenetics (Nei and Kumar, Oxford University Press, 2000). This book explains various statistical methods for analyzing molecular data and shows how to interpret the results obtained by various computer programs.

Northwest Botany
Web Sites |
- Includes on-line access to databases for both plants and fungi as well as a link to information on the current Oregon Flora Project
- This site contains descriptions and pictures of flowering plants in Oregon and Washington and includes a regularly updated list of what can be found in bloom (broken down by region).
- USFS web site for the Pacific Northwest Region
- The Andrews Experimental Forest is located in the Oregon Cascades an hour's drive east of Eugene, and is managed cooperatively by OSU and the USFS as an LTER site.
- The canopy crane facility is located in a Research Natural Area on the Washington side of the Columbia River Gorge.
- This site focuses on providing tools and data that can assist in management decisions regarding ecosystems in the pacific northwest. Included among their datasets is a map of the Willamette Valley's vegetation during the 1850's
