38 ** MEGA-link (above) goes to a new version, MEGA5, which has been recently released. Classroom C128 computers have MEGA4 (see the manual above). When you work with your own computers, install MEGA5 and use the online help and manual. Your data should be in this format: [[attach:Assign 1 prelim dataset in MEGAformat.txt]]. Use this file for training yourself with MEGA. Instead of aligning your own data with a separate ClustalX -program, you can use the aligning facility within MEGA-package.
