Compositional heterogeneity in data intended for studies of phylogeny suggests that the data did not evolve under these conditions. SeqVis, a Java application for analysis of nucleotide content, reads sequence alignments in several formats and plots the nucleotide content in a tetrahedron. Once plotted, outliers can be identified, thus allowing for decisions on the applicability of the data for phylogenetic analysis.Keywords: nucleotide derivative; article; cluster analysis; computer analysis; computer program; genetic heterogeneity; information processing; nonhuman; nucleotide sequence; phylogeny; priority journal; sequence alignmentSeqVis: visualization of compositional heterogeneity in large alignments of nucleotides200610.1093/bioinformatics/btl2832015-12-11
