TreeBeST: Tree Building guided by Species Tree
|
|
(Ensembl Compara modifications)
|
|
|
|
TreeBeST, which stands for (gene) Tree Building guided by Species Tree,
|
|
is a versatile program that builds, manipulates and displays
|
|
phylogenetic trees. It is particularly designed for building gene trees
|
|
with a known species tree and is highly efficient and accurate.
|
|
|
|
TreeBeST is previously known as NJTREE. It has been largely used in the
|
|
TreeFam database, Ensembl Compara and OPTIC database of Chris Ponting
|
|
group.
|
|
|
|
This is the Ensembl Compara modifications version. The main new features
|
|
are:
|
|
|
|
1) -s option in treebest sdi, to allow a user-defined species tree.
|
|
T node-tag in the NHX output: a bit-field listing the input trees
|
|
2) that support the node.
|
|
3) -I option in treebest nj, to carry on the T tags from the input tree
|
|
4) -Z option in treebest best, to redefine the PhyML variable MIN_DIFF_LK
|
|
5) -X option in treebest best, to give a higher weight to the likelihood
|
|
that comes from the reconciliation with the species tree (default 1)
|
|
6) -I option in treebest best, to start from the input tree instead of
|
|
building one
|
|
7) Species-intersection scores are now also reported as floating-point
|
|
values under the DCS node-tag. The value is between 0 and 1, and
|
|
displayed with 4 decimals.
|
|
|
|
The script builds both the command line and GUI versions of treebest.
