These trees were created using one of the xml files provided with the original BEAST paper by Drummond and Rambaut (2007). They provide an example of 17 dengue virus serotype 4 sequences from Lanciotti et al. (1997) (available as DengueSeqs) and xml files with varying priors for model and clock rate. Here we include a random sample of 500 of the trees (from the second half of the posterior) produced using BEAST v1.8 with the standard GTR + Gamma + I substitution model with uncorrelated lognormal-distributed relaxed molecular clock (file 4).
