NAME
Bio::Phylo::Models::Substitution::Dna - DNA substitution model

DESCRIPTION
This is a superclass for models of DNA evolution. Classes that inherit from this class provide methods for retreiving general parameters such as substitution rates or the number of states as well as model-specific parameters. Currently most of the popular models are implemented. The static function modeltest
determines the substitution model from a Bio::Phylo::Matrices::Matrix object and returns the appropriate instance of the subclass. This class also provides serialization of a model to standard phylogenetics file formats.
