Summarising sets of phylogenies

Submitted by Aidan Budd on October 23, 2013

A presentation given as part of the Basic Evolution Workshop, a trans-African virtual training course (described in this BioEssays article PMID: 21312200; the course wiki is here http://molecevol10.wikispaces.com/). Introduces concepts of splits, consensus trees, consensus networks, describes examples of applications of these tools, along with introducing ideas of tree topology and some terminology associated with it. Designed for remote training.
