Abstract

Summary: DendroPy is a cross-platform library for the Python programming language that
provides for object-oriented reading, writing, simulation and manipulation of phylogenetic
data, with an emphasis on phylogenetic tree operations. DendroPy uses a splits-hash
mapping to perform rapid calculations of tree distances, similarities and shape under various
metrics. It contains rich simulation routines to generate trees under a number of different
phylogenetic and coalescent models. DendroPy's data simulation and manipulation facilities,
in conjunction with its support of a broad range of phylogenetic data formats (NEXUS,
Newick, PHYLIP, FASTA, NeXML, etc.), allow it to serve a useful role in various
phyloinformatics and phylogeographic pipelines.
