Relative evolutionary rate inference in HyPhy with LEISR

We introduce LEISR (Likehood Estimation of Individual Site Rates, pronounced “laser”), a tool to infer relative evolutionary rates from protein and nucleotide data, implemented in HyPhy. LEISR is based on the popular Rate4Site (Pupko et al., 2002) approach for inferring relative site-wise evolutiona...
