Abstract
SUMMARY: We describe eMPRess, a software program for phylogenetic tree reconciliation under the duplication-transfer-loss model that systematically addresses the problems of choosing event costs and selecting representative solutions, enabling users to make more robust inferences. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: eMPRess is freely available at http://www.cs.hmc.edu/empress. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
