Mark long branches

OCCURRENCE

ARB_NT

 

DESCRIPTION

Badly aligned sequences often result in long branches in the tree. Being able to identify those branches quickly helps to find those sequences. The programs allows to mark all species having an extra long branch compared to it's nearest neighbour.

 

NOTES

Play around and try different numbers.

 

BUGS

The program does not show all extra long branches because then the output won't be user readable. So after fixing the alignment of sequences and recalculating the branch lengths, there might be new sequences with extra long branches.
