    User Defined Distance Matrix

    OCCURRENCE  

    ARB_DIST

     

    DESCRIPTION  

    Allows the user to define distances between different bases. E.g. An A-T should get a smaller difference as an A-G, so the corresponding matrix elements should be set to 1.0 and 2.0.

     

    NOTES  

    Before the algorithm starts, all matrix values will be multiplied by a factor, such that the average matrix value (except the diagonal) is approximately 1.0!

    To save a user matrix use <Properties/Save Properties> menu item.

     

    BUGS  

    Works only with some distance corrections:

    none    similarity      jukes_cantor

    Works only with dna

    If enabled only ACGTU/GAPS bases are calculated.
