Abstract

It has been our endower to present and explore different steps involved in the construction of a phylogenetic tree using online services. The application of different bioinformatic tools is necessary for the realization of the desirable results. A stepwise construction strategy using on line ClustalW is proposed with suitable application. The method can hope fully will aid the reader to construct the phylogenetic tree. Construction of phylogenetic tree is useful for comparison of homology of functional proteins in one species and between species.
