    longDescription = ''
      Bayesian inference of phylogeny is based upon a
      quantity called the posterior probability distribution of trees, which is
      the probability of a tree conditioned on the observations. The conditioning
      is accomplished using Bayes's theorem. The posterior probability
      distribution of trees is impossible to calculate analytically; instead,
      MrBayes uses a simulation technique called Markov chain Monte Carlo (or
      MCMC) to approximate the posterior probabilities of trees.
