Phylogenetic trees can be constructed using three main methods: Distance-based methods: Such as neighbor-joining. These methods calculate evolutionary distances between sequences using substitution models. The distance matrix is then used to construct the phylogenetic tree. Parsimony-based methods: Such as maximum parsimony. Character-based methods: Such as maximum likelihood or Bayesian inference. This method is also called the discrete method because it is based directly on the sequence characters. Phylogenetic trees can be represented in three forms: Phylogram, Dendrogram,... Show more
