IMO it's not necessary to remove the files within the loop remove them after the loop:

Code:

#!/bin/bash

n=$(ls block* | wc -l)
while [ $n -ge 1 ]
do
    mv block${n} infile
    ./dnadist <<-EOF
    D
    Y
    EOF
    mv outfile infile
    ./neighbor <<-EOF
    Y
    EOF
    sed "s/:[0-9\.-]*//g" outtree > Result${n}
    n=$(( $n - 1 ))
done

rm infile
rm outfile
rm outtree
