How do you use PhyML in Geneious?
Install the plugin by downloading the gplugin file and dragging it in to Geneious Prime or use the plugin manager in Geneious Prime (under Tools – Plugins in the menu). Once installed, run the plugin by selecting a multiple sequence alignment and clicking on Tree in the toolbar.
What is PhyML?
PhyML is a phylogeny software based on the maximum-likelihood principle. Early PhyML versions used a fast algorithm to perform Nearest Neighbor Interchanges (NNIs), in order to improve a reasonable starting tree topology.
How do you make a phylogenetic tree in Geneious?
How to build a phylogenetic tree in Geneious Prime
- Align your sequences. Before you can build a phylogenetic tree, you need to align your sequences.
- Choose your tree builder and parameters. At the top of the tree building options you’ll see the available tree building algorithms.
- Run your tree.
- View your tree.
How do you export a phylogenetic tree from Geneious?

How do I choose an outgroup?
In general, an outgroup should be as close as possible to the ingroup. If there is a risk that it is really part of the ingroup, then other outgroups are needed in addition, to help resolve those relationships. Multiple outgroups give a more reliable picture.
What is a maximum likelihood tree?
The maximum likelihood tree The tree with the highest probablility is the tree with the highest maximum likelihood.
How do we construct phylogenetic trees?
Building a phylogenetic tree requires four distinct steps: (Step 1) identify and acquire a set of homologous DNA or protein sequences, (Step 2) align those sequences, (Step 3) estimate a tree from the aligned sequences, and (Step 4) present that tree in such a way as to clearly convey the relevant information to others …
What is strong bootstrap support?
A bootstrap support above 95% is very good and very well accepted and a bootstrap support between 75% and 95% is reasonably good, anything below 75% is a very poor support and anything below 50% is of no use, it is rejected and such values are not even displayed on the phylogenetic tree.
How do I export a sequence from Geneious?
To export files from Geneious, select the file or files you want to export and click File → Export → Selected Documents.
How do I export an image from Geneious?
You can export graphics from Geneious Prime using File→Save As Image File…. If you are exporting the file in . jpg or . png format the default resolution is quite low, so you should increase this to about 400% to make the image look good when printed.
