Description

This command implements functions to compute the trees, tripartitions or clusters contained in a phylogenetic network. Please note that the clusters and tripartitions returned by this tool will not contain trivial ones, that is, clusters and tripartitions for the network’s root and leaves. The networks must be specified in the Rich Newick Format.

Usage

Charnet network_ident -m [tree|tri|cluster] [resultOutputFile]

network_ident

The name of the network to analyse.

mandatory

-m [tree|tri|cluster]

Characterization mode. One of tree, tri, or cluster.

mandatory

resultOutputFile

Optional file destination for command output.
