BALTIC

BALTIC (Backronymed Adaptable Lightweight Tree Import Code) is a Python library designed for the manipulation, analysis, and visualization of molecular phylogenies. It provides a powerful set of tools for researchers and bioinformaticians working with evolutionary trees, particularly those derived from molecular sequence data.

Key Features

  • Efficient manipulation of phylogenetic trees
  • Advanced analysis capabilities for time-scaled phylogenies
  • Flexible visualization options for evolutionary relationships
  • Integration with popular Python data analysis libraries
  • Support for various tree file formats

BALTIC is particularly useful for:

  • Exploring the temporal and spatial dynamics of pathogen evolution
  • Investigating patterns of speciation and extinction
  • Visualizing complex evolutionary relationships
  • Integrating phylogenetic data with other biological information

Whether you're a seasoned phylogeneticist or new to the field, BALTIC offers a user-friendly yet powerful approach to working with evolutionary trees.
