NAME

       tree-ppuzzle - Reconstruction of phylogenetic trees by maximum likelihood (parallelized version)

SYNOPSIS

       tree-ppuzzle

DESCRIPTION

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

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

       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-PPUZZLE 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-PPUZZLE 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.

       This program is the paralelized version of tree-puzzle.
