| 3 | TREE-PUZZLE is a computer program to reconstruct phylogenetic trees |
---|
| 4 | from molecular sequence data by maximum likelihood. It implements a |
---|
| 5 | fast tree search algorithm, quartet puzzling, that allows analysis of |
---|
| 6 | large data sets and automatically assigns estimations of support to each |
---|
| 7 | internal branch. TREE-PUZZLE also computes pairwise maximum likelihood |
---|
| 8 | distances as well as branch lengths for user specified trees. Branch |
---|
| 9 | lengths can also be calculated under the clock-assumption. In addition, |
---|
| 10 | TREE-PUZZLE offers a novel method, likelihood mapping, to investigate |
---|
| 11 | the support of a hypothesized internal branch without computing an overall |
---|
| 12 | tree and to visualize the phylogenetic content of a sequence alignment. |
---|
| 13 | TREE-PUZZLE also conducts a number of statistical tests on the data set |
---|
| 14 | (chi-square test for homogeneity of base composition, likelihood ratio |
---|
| 15 | to test the clock hypothesis, Kishino-Hasegawa test). The models of |
---|
| 16 | substitution provided by TREE-PUZZLE are TN, HKY, F84, SH for |
---|
| 17 | nucleotides, Dayhoff, JTT, mtREV24, BLOSUM 62, VT, WAG for amino acids, |
---|
| 18 | and F81 for two-state data. Rate heterogeneity is modelled by a |
---|
| 19 | discrete Gamma distribution and by allowing invariable sites. |
---|
| 20 | The corresponding parameters can be inferred from the data set. |
