Hi Helena,

I am writing in response to your question regarding the MEGA software. The file you have is not a Newick file but rather it is a NEXUS file and MEGA does not extract trees from NEXUS files. To import the tree into MEGA you can edit the file in a text editor to only contain data that is supported by the Newick standard format.
