Those weights must be integers separated by any type and number of whitespaces whithin a separate file, see file "example_weights" for an example. -A Specify one of the secondary structure substitution models implemented in RAxML. The same nomenclature as in the PHASE manual is used, available models: S6A, S6B, S6C, S6D, S6E, S7A, S7B, S7C, S7D, S7E, S7F, S16, S16A, S16B DEFAULT: 16-state GTR model (S16) -b Specify an integer number (random seed) and turn on bootstrapping DEFAULT: OFF -B specify a floating point number between 0.0 and 1.0 that will be used as cutoff threshold for the MR-based bootstopping criteria.

Format is similar to Nexus, the file shall contain entries like "100-200 300-400", to exclude a single column write, e.g., "100-100", if you use a mixed model, an appropriatly adapted model file will be written. -f select algorithm: "-f a": rapid Bootstrap analysis and search for best-scoring ML tree in one program run "-f b": draw bipartition information on a tree provided with "-t" based on multiple trees (e.g., from a bootstrap) in a file specifed by "-z" "-f c": check if the alignment can be properly read by RAxML "-f d": new rapid hill-climbing DEFAULT: ON "-f e": optimize model+branch lengths for given input tree under GAMMA/GAMMAI only "-f E": execute very fast experimental tree search, at present only for testing "-f F": execute fast experimental tree search, at present only for testing "-f g": compute per site log Likelihoods for one ore more trees passed via "-z" and write them to a file that can be read by CONSEL "-f h": compute log likelihood test (SH-test) between best tree passed via "-t" and a bunch of other trees passed via "-z" "-f i": EXPERIMENTAL do not use for real tree inferences: conducts a single cycle of fast lazy SPR moves on a given input tree, to be used in combination with -C and -M "-f I": EXPERIMENTAL do not use for real tree inferences: conducts a single cycle of thorough lazy SPR moves on a given input tree, to be used in combination with -C and -M "-f j": generate a bunch of bootstrapped alignment files from an original alignemnt file. You need to specify a seed with "-b" and the number of replicates with "-#" "-f J": Compute SH-like support values on a given tree passed via "-t". "-f m": compare bipartitions between two bunches of trees passed via "-t" and "-z" respectively. This will return the Pearson correlation between all bipartitions found in the two tree files. A file called RAxML_bipartitionFrequencies.outpuFileName will be printed that contains the pair-wise bipartition frequencies of the two sets "-f n": compute the log likelihood score of all trees contained in a tree file provided by "-z" under GAMMA or GAMMA+P-Invar "-f o": old and slower rapid hill-climbing without heuristic cutoff "-f p": perform pure stepwise MP addition of new sequences to an incomplete starting tree and exit "-f r": compute pairwise Robinson-Foulds (RF) distances between all pairs of trees in a tree file passed via "-z" if the trees have node labales represented as integer support values the program will also compute two flavors of the weighted Robinson-Foulds (WRF) distance "-f R": compute rogue taxa using new statistical method based on the evolutionary placement algorithm WARNING: this is experimental code "-f s": split up a multi-gene partitioned alignment into the respective subalignments "-f S": compute site-specific placement bias using a leave one out test inspired by the evolutionary placement algorithm "-f t": do randomized tree searches on one fixed starting tree "-f u": execute morphological weight calibration using maximum likelihood, this will return a weight vector. you need to provide a morphological alignment and a reference tree via "-t" "-f U": execute morphological wieght calibration using parsimony, this will return a weight vector. you need to provide a morphological alignment and a reference tree via "-t" "-f v": classify a bunch of environmental sequences into a reference tree using the slow heuristics without dynamic alignment you will need to start RAxML with a non-comprehensive reference tree and an alignment containing all sequences (reference + query) "-f w": compute ELW test on a bunch of trees passed via "-z" "-f x": compute pair-wise ML distances, ML model parameters will be estimated on an MP starting tree or a user-defined tree passed via "-t", only allowed for GAMMA-based models of rate heterogeneity "-f y": classify a bunch of environmental sequences into a reference tree using the fast heuristics without dynamic alignment you will need to start RAxML with a non-comprehensive reference tree and an alignment containing all sequences (reference + query) DEFAULT for "-f": new rapid hill climbing -F enable ML tree searches under CAT model for very large trees without switching to GAMMA in the end (saves memory). This option can also be used with the GAMMA models in order to avoid the thorough optimization of the best-scoring ML tree in the end. DEFAULT: OFF -g specify the file name of a multifurcating constraint tree this tree does not need to be comprehensive, i.e. must not contain all taxa -G enable the ML-based evolutionary placement algorithm heuristics by specifiyng a threshold value (fraction of insertion branches to be evaluated using slow insertions under ML). -h Display this help message. -H enable the MP-based evolutionary placement algorithm heuristics by specifiyng a threshold value (fraction of insertion branches to be evaluated using slow insertions under ML). -i Initial rearrangement setting for the subsequent application of topological changes phase -I a posteriori bootstopping analysis.

This emulates MRE but is faster to compute. You also need to pass a tree file containg several bootstrap replicates via "-z" -j Specifies that intermediate tree files shall be written to file during the standard ML and BS tree searches. DEFAULT: OFF -J Compute majority rule consensus tree with "-J MR" or extended majority rule consensus tree with "-J MRE" or strict consensus tree with "-J STRICT". Options "-J STRICT_DROP" and "-J MR_DROP" will execute an algorithm that identifies dropsets which contain rogue taxa as proposed by Pattengale et al. in the paper "Uncovering hidden phylogenetic consensus". You will also need to provide a tree file containing several UNROOTED trees via "-z" -k Specifies that bootstrapped trees should be printed with branch lengths. The bootstraps will run a bit longer, because model parameters will be optimized at the end of each run under GAMMA or GAMMA+P-Invar respectively.

Also note that if you estimate AA GTR parameters on a partitioned dataset, they will be linked (estimated jointly) across all partitions to avoid over-parametrization -M Switch on estimation of individual per-partition branch lengths. Only has effect when used in combination with "-q" Branch lengths for individual partitions will be printed to separate files A weighted average of the branch lengths is computed by using the respective partition lengths DEFAULT: OFF -n Specifies the name of the output file. -o Specify the name of a single outgrpoup or a comma-separated list of outgroups, eg "-o Rat" or "-o Rat,Mouse", in case that multiple outgroups are not monophyletic the first name in the list will be selected as outgroup, don't leave spaces between taxon names! -O Enable checkpointing using the dmtcp library available at http://dmtcp.sourceforge.net/ This only works if you call the program by preceded by the command "dmtcp_checkpoint" and if you compile a dedicated binary using the appropriate Makefile. With "-O" you can specify the interval between checkpoints in seconds. DEFAULT: 3600.0 seconds -p Specify a random number seed for the parsimony inferences.

Specify the number of threads you want to run. Make sure to set "-T" to at most the number of CPUs you have on your machine, otherwise, there will be a huge performance decrease! -U Try to save memory by using SEV-based implementation for gap columns on large gappy alignments WARNING: this will only work for DNA under GTRGAMMA and is still in an experimental state. -v Display version information -w FULL (!) path to the directory into which RAxML shall write its output files DEFAULT: current directory -W Sliding window size for leave-one-out site-specific placement bias algorithm only effective when used in combination with "-f S" DEFAULT: 100 sites -x Specify an integer number (random seed) and turn on rapid bootstrapping CAUTION: unlike in version 7.0.4 RAxML will conduct rapid BS replicates under the model of rate heterogeneity you specified via "-m" and not by default under CAT -y If you want to only compute a parsimony starting tree with RAxML specify "-y", the program will exit after computation of the starting tree DEFAULT: OFF -Y Do a more thorough parsimony tree search using a parsimony ratchet and exit. specify the number of ratchet searches via "-#" or "-N" This has just been implemented for completeness, if you want a fast MP implementation use TNT DEFAULT: OFF -z Specify the file name of a file containing multiple trees e.g. from a bootstrap that shall be used to draw bipartition values onto a tree provided with "-t", It can also be used to compute per site log likelihoods in combination with "-f g" and to read a bunch of trees for a couple of other options ("-f h", "-f m", "-f n"). -#|-N Specify the number of alternative runs on distinct starting trees In combination with the "-b" option, this will invoke a multiple boostrap analysis Note that "-N" has been added as an alternative since "-#" sometimes caused problems with certain MPI job submission systems, since "-#" is often used to start comments. If you want to use the bootstopping criteria specify "-# autoMR" or "-# autoMRE" or "-# autoMRE_IGN" for the majority-rule tree based criteria (see -I option) or "-# autoFC" for the frequency-based criterion.
