NAME

       tree-puzzle - Reconstruction of phylogenetic trees by maximum likelihood

SYNOPSIS

       tree-puzzle

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual page documents briefly the tree-puzzle command.  This manual page was written
       for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a  manual
       page.

       TREE-PUZZLE is the new name for the program previously known as PUZZLE!

       tree-puzzle  is  an  interactive  console  program  that  implements  a  fast  tree search
       algorithm, quartet puzzling, that allows analysis of large  data  sets  and  automatically
       assigns estimations of support to each internal branch. TREE-PUZZLE also computes pairwise
       maximum likelihood distances as well as branch lengths for user  specified  trees.  Branch
       lengths can also be calculated under the clock-assumption. In addition, TREE-PUZZLE offers
       a novel method, likelihood mapping, to investigate the support of a hypothesized  internal
       branch  without  computing  an overall tree and to visualize the phylogenetic content of a
       sequence alignment.

       There is also a paralellized version tree-ppuzzle available.

OPTIONS

       There are no options. For usage please look at /usr/share/doc/tree-puzzle/tree-puzzle.pdf.
