Summary | 0000704: Maybe a problem in exporting/importing tree with branch length in newick format |
Description | I would like to generate a rooted phylogenetic tree in newick format based on my OTUs dataset in order to calculate Unifrac distance with R and Rhea scripts. For that I imported and aligned my sequences with MEGA 7, then constructed a ML tree. So far everything is perfect and easy. Then I exported the tree in Newick format with branch length. To check that everything is OK I reopened the tree with Mega 7 (user tree -> display Newick tree) and it appears that the branch length values are considered as OTU. All of this doesn't happen when I export / re open trees without branch length. |
Steps To Reproduce | 1 - generate the tree based on aligned sequences : open "aligned sequences" fasta file (file > open > analyze > Nucleotide sequences > non coding), then generate ML tree (phylogeny > ML tree).
2 - export the tree : file > export current tree (Newick) > branch lengths ticked > export.
3 re open the tree : user tree > display Newick tree > select the previous file
|
Additional Information | I'm sorry if my explanations aren't clear and/or if my problem results from an incorrect procedure. I tried to find a solution in the manual and FAQ by myself.
Except this problem I very very happy with MEGA 7 and I would like to thank you for providing at no charge this performant and user friendly software. |

Hi Tiphaine,
I am writing in response to your recent question regarding the MEGA software. I am not able to duplicate the issue you reported. When you export to a newick file, is the newick file opened in the MEGA text editor? And does it show branch lengths? Maybe in the Tree Explorer, the View-Topology Only menu item is selected. Can you try clicking View-Topology Only?

Hi Glen,
Thank you very much for your answer. Yes, the Newick file is opened in the MEGA text editor and yes, the branch length are indicated. I tried clicking view-topology only but it didn't solve the problem.
I manage to change my R script so that it accepted the table format and everything worked as I wanted from then, so please don't spend too much time on this problem.
Best regards,
tiphaine |
