Summary | 0002228: ML with GTR+G+I model produces incorrect tree | ||||
Description | I have a data set of 20 plastid gene sequences from gymnosperms plus some outgroups. The point of this data set is to assess the position of a difficult taxon (Gnetidae) among gymnosperms. Gnetidae are well-known as a problematic group in plant systematics. I evaluated this data set using ML with a GTR+G+I model with RAxML, phyML, IQ-TREE and MEGA. MEGA failed to obtain the same tree as the other three programs. However, I do get the correct tree with MEGA using a GTR+G model. It seems there may be a problem with your parameter optimization when rate heterogeneity is estimated using both a gamma distribution and a proportion of invariant sites. Or perhaps with your SPR tree searching algorithm. | ||||
Steps To Reproduce | Opened data file: Gnetidae.fas. It is nucleotide, protein-coding, standard genetic code. "Construct/Test Maximum Likelihood Tree” with the following choices: Test of Phylogeny: None Substitutions Type: Nucleotide Model/Method: GTR Rates among Sites: Gamma Distributed With Invariant Sites (G+I) No of Discrete Gamma Categories: 5 Gaps/Missing Data Treatment: Use all sites Select Codon Positions: selected all (1st, 2nd, 3rd, Noncoding) ML Heuristic Method: Subtree-Pruning-Regrafting - Extensive (SPR level 5) Initial Tree for ML: Make initial trees automatically (Default - NJ/BioNJ) Branch Swap Filter: None Number of Threads: 7 | ||||
Additional Information | I've submitted a zip file with results from all four programs. | ||||
