Create Trees

For a given set of aligned sequences (see Create an alignment) it is possible to infer their evolutionary relationships. In CLC Genomics Workbench this may be done using one of two distance based methods (see Bioinformatics explained).

For a given set of aligned sequences (see Create an alignment) it is possible to infer their evolutionary relationships. In CLC Genomics Workbench this may be done either by using a distance based method or by using maximum likelihood (ML) estimation, which is a statistical approach (see Bioinformatics explained). Both approaches generate a phylogenetic tree.

Three tools are available for generating phylogenetic trees:
