SeaView

SeaView is a graphical multiple sequence alignment editor developed by Manolo Gouy. SeaView is able to read and write various alignment formats (NEXUS, MSF, CLUSTAL, FASTA, PHYLIP, MASE). It allows one to manually edit the alignment, and also to run DOT-PLOT or MSA programs to locally improve the alignment.

Input data file formats

NEXUS, PHYLIP, MSF, CLUSTAL, MASE

The original reference for SeaView is Galtier et al. (1996).

Alternatively, Windows users can use BioEdit ver. 7.0.9. However, BioEdit cannot read NEXUS formatted files, so the format must be changed to a different type (e.g., FASTA) beforehand.

Instructions

You can download versions of SeaView for Macintosh, Windows or Linux from the SeaView website.

The Seaview download for Mac OS X might be broken! In which case, you may get the program here: Seaview.zip
