+PAML: Phylogenetic Analysis by Maximum Likelihood
+
+PAML is a package of programs for phylogenetic analyses of DNA or
+protein sequences using maximum likelihood. PAML is not good for tree
+making. It may be used to estimate parameters and test hypotheses to
+study the evolutionary process, when you have reconstructed trees
+using other programs such as PAUP*, PHYLIP, MOLPHY, PhyML, RaxML, etc.

+This is pamlX: the graphical user interface for PAML.
