Acknowledgements:

We thank our colleagues, students, and volunteers who spent countless hours using test versions of MEGA. They continue to provide valuable feedback pertaining to the ease-of-use of the user interface and software bugs. We thank the community at large for using MEGA and providing many suggestions. These comments help us to improve the user interface and encourage us to implement new methods. The MEGA software project has been supported over the years by research grants from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS).
