General Tutorial
===================

Input data
----------

IQ-TREE takes as input a *multiple sequence alignment* and will reconstruct an evolutionary tree that is best explained by the input data. The input alignment can be in various common formats. For example the PHYLIP_ format which may look like:

.. _PHYLIP: http://evolution.genetics.washington.edu/phylip/doc/sequence.html

::

    7 28
    Frog       AAATTTGGTCCTGTGATTCAGCAGTGAT
    Turtle     CTTCCACACCCCAGGACTCAGCAGTGAT
    Bird       CTACCACACCCCAGGACTCAGCAGTAAT
    Human      CTACCACACCCCAGGAAACAGCAGTGAT
    Cow        CTACCACACCCCAGGAAACAGCAGTGAC
    Whale      CTACCACGCCCCAGGACACAGCAGTGAT
    Mouse      CTACCACACCCCAGGACTCAGCAGTGAT

This tiny alignment contains 7 DNA sequences from several animals with the sequence length of 28 nucleotides. IQ-TREE also supports other file formats such as FASTA, NEXUS, CLUSTALW. The FASTA file for the above example may look like this:

::

    >Frog
    AAATTTGGTCCTGTGATTCAGCAGTGAT
    >Turtle
    CTTCCACACCCCAGGACTCAGCAGTGAT
    >Bird
    CTACCACACCCCAGGACTCAGCAGTAAT
    >Human
    CTACCACACCCCAGGAAACAGCAGTGAT
    >Cow
    CTACCACACCCCAGGAAACAGCAGTGAC
    >Whale
    CTACCACGCCCCAGGACACAGCAGTGAT
    >Mouse
    CTACCACACCCCAGGACTCAGCAGTGAT

**NOTE**: If you have raw sequences, you need to first apply alignment programs like MAFFT_ or ClustalW_ to align the sequences, before feeding them into IQ-TREE.

.. _MAFFT: http://mafft.cbrc.jp/alignment/software/
.. _ClustalW: http://www.clustal.org


Running example
---------------------

From the download_ there is an example alignment called `example.phy`
in PHYLIP format. This example contains parts of the mitochondrial DNA sequences of several animals (Source: `Phylogenetic Handbook`_)

.. _`Phylogenetic Handbook` : http://www.kuleuven.be/aidslab/phylogenybook/home.html)).
.. _download: http://www.iqtree.org/#download

You can now start to reconstruct a maximum-likelihood tree
from this alignment by entering (assuming that you are now in the same folder with `example.phy`):

::iqtree -s example.phy -st AA -seed 9999 -m TESTNEW -msub nuclear -madd LG4M,LG4x -merit AICc --ufboot 2000

* **-s** is the option to specify the name of the alignment file

* **-st** specifies the sequence type as amino-acid

* **-seed** ensures that the output files remain the same for subsequent runs

* **-m** sets the modelling parameter for standard model selection

* **-msub** determines the type sub-modelling

* **-madd** provides an additional selection mixed models

* **-merit** asserts the type of optimality criterion

* **-ufboot** defines the number of replicates


Each of these parameters are available under the relevant sub-sections in the main tool interface.

At the end of the run IQ-TREE will write several output files including:

* **example.phy.iqtree**: the main report file that is self-readable. You should look at this file to see the computational results. It also contains a textual representation of the final tree (see below).

* **example.phy.treefile**: the ML tree in NEWICK format, which can be visualized by any supported tree viewer programs like FigTree or  iTOL.

**NOTE**: Starting with version 1.5.4, with this simple command IQ-TREE will by default perform ModelFinder to find the best-fit substitution model and then infer a phylogenetic tree using the selected model.

For this example data the resulting maximum-likelihood tree may look like this (extracted from **.iqtree** file):

**NOTE**: Tree is UNROOTED although outgroup taxon 'LngfishAu' is drawn at root

::

    +--------------LngfishAu
    |
    |        +--------------LngfishSA
    +--------|
    |        +--------------LngfishAf
    |
    |      +-------------------Frog
    +------|
    |               +-----------------Turtle
    |         +-----|
    |         |     |      +-----------------------Sphenodon
    |         |     |   +--|
    |         |     |   |  +--------------------------Lizard
    |         |     +---|
    |         |         |      +---------------------Crocodile
    |         |         +------|
    |         |                +------------------Bird
    +---------|
    |                  +----------------Human
    |               +--|
    |               |  |  +--------Seal
    |               |  +--|
    |               |     |   +-------Cow
    |               |     +---|
    |               |         +---------Whale
    |          +----|
    |          |    |         +------Mouse
    |          |    +---------|
    |          |              +--------Rat
    +----------|
    |   +----------------Platypus
    +---|
    +-------------Opossum


This makes sense as the mammals (**Human** to **Opossum**) form a clade, whereas the reptiles **Turtle** to **Crocodile**) and **Bird** form a separate sister clade. Here the tree is drawn at the *outgroup* Lungfish which is more accient than other species in this example. However, please note that IQ-TREE always produces an **unrooted tree** as it knows nothing about this biological background; IQ-TREE simply draws the tree this way as **LngfishAu** is the first sequence occuring in the alignment.

Choosing the right substitution model
-------------------------------------

IQ-TREE will choose the best model for you automatically if specify any of the TEST models, but valid custom models can also be specified that conform to those found in Models_ page.

.. _Models: http://www.iqtree.org/doc/Substitution-Models#binary-and-morphological-models


------------------------------

Advanced Parameter Selection
============================

Using codon models
------------------

IQ-TREE supports a number of codon models. You need to input a protein-coding DNA alignment and specify codon data by option **-st CODON** (Otherwise, IQ-TREE applies DNA model because it detects that your alignment has DNA sequences):

::

  iqtree -s coding_gene.phy -st CODON

If your alignment length is not divisible by 3, IQ-TREE will stop with an error message. IQ-TREE will group sites 1,2,3 into codon site 1; sites 4,5,6 to codon site 2; etc. Moreover, any codon, which has at least one gap/unknown/ambiguous nucleotide, will be treated as unknown codon character.

Note that the above command assumes the standard genetic code. If your sequences follow 'The Invertebrate Mitochondrial Code', then run:

::

   iqtree -s coding_gene.phy -st CODON5

Note that ModelFinder works for codon alignments. IQ-TREE version >= 1.5.4 will automatically invokes ModelFinder to find the best-fit codon model.


Assessing branch supports with ultrafast bootstrap approximation
----------------------------------------------------------------

To overcome the computational burden required by the nonparametric bootstrap, IQ-TREE introduces an ultrafast bootstrap approximation (UFBoot) ([Minh et al., 2013]) that is  orders of magnitude faster than the standard procedure and provides relatively unbiased branch support values. Citation for UFBoot:

   B.Q. Minh, M.A.T. Nguyen, and A. von Haeseler (2013) Ultrafast approximation for phylogenetic bootstrap. _Mol. Biol. Evol., 30:1188-1195.

::

   iqtree -s example.phy -m TIM2+I+G --ufboot 1000

**-ufboot** specifies the number of bootstrap replicates where 1000 is the minimum number recommended. The section  **MAXIMUM LIKELIHOOD TREE** in  **example.phy.iqtree** shows a textual representation of the maximum likelihood tree with branch support values in percentage. The NEWICK format of the tree is printed to the file  **example.phy.treefile**. In addition, IQ-TREE writes the following files:

* **example.phy.contree**: the consensus tree with assigned branch supports where branch lengths are optimized  on the original alignment.

* **example.phy.splits**: support values in percentage for all splits (bipartitions), computed as the occurence frequencies in the bootstrap trees. This file is in "star-dot" format.

* **example.phy.splits.nex**: has the same information as **example.phy.splits** but in NEXUS format, which can be viewed with the program SplitsTree_ to explore the conflicting signals in the data. So it is more informative than consensus tree, e.g. you can see how highly supported the second best conflicting split is, which had no chance to enter the consensus tree.

Reducing impact of severe model violations with UFBoot
------------------------------------------------------

Starting with IQ-TREE version 1.6 we provide a new option **-bnni** to reduce the risk of overestimating branch supports with UFBoot due to severe model violations. With this option UFBoot will further optimize each bootstrap tree using a hill-climbing nearest neighbor interchange (NNI) search based directly on the corresponding bootstrap alignment.

Thus, if severe model violations are present in the data set at hand, users are advised to append **-bnni** to the regular UFBoot command:

iqtree -s example.phy -m TIM2+I+G --ufboot 1000 -bnni

Assessing branch supports with  standard nonparametric bootstrap
----------------------------------------------------------------

The standard nonparametric bootstrap is invoked by  the  **-b** option:

iqtree -s example.phy -m TIM2+I+G -b 100

**-b** specifies the number of bootstrap replicates where 100
is the minimum recommended number. The output files are similar to those produced by the UFBoot procedure.



Assessing branch supports with single branch tests
--------------------------------------------------

IQ-TREE provides an implementation of the SH-like approximate likelihood ratio test ([Guindon et al., 2010]). To perform this test,  run:

::

  iqtree -s example.phy -m TIM2+I+G --alrt 1000

**--alrt** specifies the number of bootstrap replicates for SH-aLRT where 1000 is the minimum number recommended.

IQ-TREE also supports other tests such as the aBayes test (Anisimova et al., 2011) and the local bootstrap test (Adachi and Hasegawa, 1996).

You can also perform both SH-aLRT and the ultrafast bootstrap within one single run:

::

  iqtree -s example.phy -m TIM2+I+G --alrt 1000 --ufboot 1000

The branches of the resulting **.treefile** will be assigned with both SH-aLRT and UFBoot support values, which are readable by any tree viewer program like FigTree, Dendroscope or ETE. You can also look at the textual tree figure in **.iqtree** file:

**NOTE**: Tree is UNROOTED although outgroup taxon 'LngfishAu' is drawn at root
Numbers in parentheses are SH-aLRT support (%) / ultrafast bootstrap support (%)

From this figure, the branching patterns within reptiles are poorly supported (e.g. **Sphenodon** with SH-aLRT: 39%, UFBoot: 51% and **Turtle** with SH-aLRT: 85%, UFBoot: 72%) as well as the phylogenetic position of **Seal** within mammals (SH-aLRT: 68.3%, UFBoot: 75%). Other branches appear to be well supported.
