I have nuclear and mitochondrial sequences each arranged separately in fasta format and I need to have a combined format of those to conduct population genetics and phylogenetic analyses.
Are each of these fasta files aligned? Once they are aligned you can then concatenate them into a single matrix. I quite like SequenceMatrix for a drag-n-drop GUI and seeing the distances between each component of the supermatrix, and it outputs in a few different formats. For command-line concatenation I would suggest FASconCAT, a nicely made perl utility which can then be part of a pipeline, if you are working in that kind of environment.
