Hi Liam,

thanks, the acctran() function worked for me! I'm sorry I did not realize this question was already asked and answered here, I did not find that on google at first (for future reference):

Hi Annemarie.

To estimate branch lengths on a fixed topology you might want to try acctran for MP edge lengths; and optim.pml(...,optEdge=TRUE) (with all other options FALSE) for ML. Both of these functions are in the phangorn package. Look at the phangorn vignette "Ancestral sequence Reconstruction" (http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/phangorn/index.html) for details.
