Phylogenetic Analysis:Constructing a Phylogenetic Tree

A Tutorial for Generating a Phylogenetic Tree:Simplest and Comprehensive guide

As I have explained earlier in my last video,how to install a MEGA Software.Now moving to the next step that is generating a phylogenetic tree.So In this video,I am talking about how to generate a tree using this Software.

Step wise Representation for generating a Phylogenetic Tree

  • Acquiring the Sequences

MEGA5 opens its own browser window to show a BLAST page from National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) from where it gets the sequences.


  • Alligning the Sequence
The next step is allignment of the sequences that we have downloaded from NCBI in FASTA format.Two methods can be used for Multiple Sequence Allignment : 
  • Muscle
  • CLUSTAL W



  •  Estimating a PhylogeneticTree


There are several widely used methods for estimating phylogenetic trees
  1. Neighbor Joining
  2.  UPGMA
  3.  Bayesian Inference
  4.  Maximum Likelihood ML
  • Presenting a Phylogenetic TREE

A drawing of a phylogenetic tree conveys a lot of information, both explicit and implicit.

SPSS FOR BIOLOGISTS: Forecasting Analysis using IBM Statistics

EXPECTED OUTCOME OF COVID 19 USING FORECASTING ANALYSIS Forecasting is basically a statistical approach to make predictions for  the future on the basis of past or present observation.In biological terms, this approach is quite beneficial for the researchers to give predictions about any pandemic situation on the basis on previous knowledge/observation. For instance,We can calculate the substantial number of the patients that are going to be affected using Forecasting Analysis. AIM OF THIS TUTORIAL In this tutorial we try to explain about the current COVID 19 Pandemic situation respectively in Pakistan.We have the corresponding data about the patients per million for 4 weeks.On this basis ,we have predicted the increase in numbers for next 7 days by applying forecasting Analysis For more details about how to do Forecasting Analysis watch the video THANK YOU!!
