Description: Ape provides functions for reading, writing, plotting,
  and manipulating phylogenetic trees, analyses of comparative data
  in a phylogenetic framework, analyses of diversification and
  macroevolution, computing distances from allelic and nucleotide
  data, reading nucleotide sequences, and several tools such as
  Mantel's test, computation of minimum spanning tree, the population
  parameter theta based on various approaches, nucleotide diversity,
  generalized skyline plots, estimation of absolute evolutionary rates
  and clock-like trees using non-parametric rate smoothing, conversion
  of APE trees to and from hclust objects and for classifying genes in
  trees using the Klastorin-Misawa-Tajima approach. Phylogeny estimation
  can be done with the NJ and ML methods.
