3 | Major changes for next release: |
---|
4 | |
---|
5 | - ARB PARSIMONY |
---|
6 | * topology optimization |
---|
7 | - now (by default) strictly restricted to marked/visible parts of the tree (#640) |
---|
8 | - restriction now customizable (marked/all; visible/all) |
---|
9 | - tree costs for protein-data were not independent from root-position (as expected by model; #633). |
---|
10 | Caused infinite running optimization under some circumstances. |
---|
11 | - optimize-modes now strictly restrict to clicked subtrees. single/repeated optimization possible. |
---|
12 | - KL-optimizer |
---|
13 | * static path reduction slightly changed meaning. changed default settings. |
---|
14 | * removed randomness (was just covering some bugs) |
---|
15 | * improved general optimization speed |
---|
16 | * branchlength calculation |
---|
17 | - "forgot" to recalculate lengths under some conditions. fixed. |
---|
18 | - is now independent of tree-root position (#641) |
---|
19 | * adding species |
---|
20 | - 'add partial species' failed if two partial species had NO overlap (#609). fixed. |
---|
21 | - in 'add species + NNI' local optimization quality depended on insert position. fixed. |
---|
22 | - insertion of multiple species is now done independently (=unordered) |
---|
23 | - performance improved (esp. for many added species/big trees) |
---|
24 | * generally improved combine performance (using SSE) |
---|
25 | * generally reduced the number of performed combines (skipping many useless) |
---|
26 | * added function to randomize (parts of) the tree |
---|
27 | * warns about insufficient sequence data (e.g. as result of too restrictive filtering; #631) |
---|
28 | * fixed 'RESTORE' (crashed after deleting species from tree; #528) |
---|
29 | * corrected handling of dots ('.') while combining ancestor sequences |
---|
30 | * fixed a bunch of internal bugs (#620, #627, ...) |
---|
31 | * added species-info mode |
---|
32 | - DNA realigner |
---|
33 | * several unjustified failures will no longer happen (fixes #419 and most likely #145) |
---|
34 | - correctly re-syncs after 'X' (if possible at all) |
---|
35 | - no longer fails for 'B' and 'Z' |
---|
36 | - accepts 3 or more consecutive IUPAC codes in DNA |

---|
39 | - ARB probeSpec: visualisation of probe set specificity (thanks to Paavo Jumppanen, CSIRO) |
---|
40 | - species selections (editor configurations): |
---|
41 | * visualisation of multiple selections in standard tree view (#658; example in database demo.arb) |
---|
42 | * order can be changed; each configuration has a comment |
---|
43 | - sequence import/export: |
---|
44 | * manage/edit/test import-/export-filter-definitions from inside ARB (#691) |

---|
48 | * according to values stored in database |
---|
49 | * according to given topology (useful when comparing topologies) |

50 | - support for extra database compression (using gzip, bzip2, xz); databases cannot be opened by arb versions before 6.1.x |
---|
51 | - ARB_EDIT4: |
---|
52 | * display selected database fields as flags (allowing to toggle their value; #261). |
---|
53 | Example use: easily mark sequence as "curated" after manually checking its alignment. |
---|
54 | * allow to load missing SAIs |
---|
55 | * "view differences" to a reference sequence: |
---|
56 | - customizable: |
---|
57 | * char used for "equality" (i.e. what is displayed where a sequence is equal to selected sequence) |
---|
58 | * case-sensitivity |
---|
59 | * ignore different gap-types |
---|
60 | - equal data also gets hidden in consensus |
---|
61 | - refresh differences of all displayed sequences, when data of selected sequences changes |
---|

---|
66 | - now both calculations are strictly consistent: |
---|
67 | * gaps are now ignored while deciding whether to simplify using IUPAC ambiguity codes |
---|
68 | * IUPAC ambiguity codes encountered in sequence data are now counted proportionally (=> fewer 'N's occur in consensus) |
---|

77 | - amino acids: if MAX_FREQUENCY is below 10% SAI now shows '1' (prev. it did show '0', i.e. 100%) |
---|
78 | * POS_VAR_BY_PARSIMONY (PVP): |
---|
79 | - now (again) works with amino acid data |
---|
80 | - expand zombies in tree (unfold groups) |
---|
81 | - compare taxonomy (and mark differences; #651) |
---|
82 | - search&query for taxonomic groups (#652) |
---|
83 | - many search criteria (name, size, marked, nesting-level, ingroup-distance, ...) |
---|
84 | - search multiple trees, detect duplicate and missing groups |
---|
85 | - operations on found groups (delete, rename, fold, mark) |
---|
86 | - added concept of "inverse groups" (aka "keeled groups") |
---|
87 | - group transfer between trees: |
---|
88 | - penalties can be customized in detail |
---|
89 | - quality reports (to log and optionally to target name) |
---|
90 | - external (command line) aligners: |
---|
91 | * fixed incorrect handling of 'T' vs 'U': now all aligned sequences will contain the correct base depending on alignment type |
---|
92 | * preserve gap-type ('-' vs '.') and upper-/lower-case of original alignment |
---|
93 | * no longer ask what to do with aligned sequence, just overwrite it |
---|
94 | - only warn about real sequence changes (so please do NOT ignore from now on!) |
---|
95 | - config-managers: |
---|
96 | * possibility to restore factory defaults |
---|
97 | * added comment field for configurations |
---|
98 | * added them throughout arb (#647) |

---|
103 | * group display (shading, customizable counters, triangle clades, optimized name+bootstrap display position) |
---|
104 | * diagonal branch style |
---|
105 | * parent branch position |
---|
106 | * all options are now also supported by ARB_PARSIMONY |
---|
107 | * improved auto-jump; now also works for groups |
---|
108 | * added optional auto-unfolding (to selected group/species) |
---|
109 | * select group on fold/unfold/create/move/.. |
---|
