Fix RootTree.pl #1

Closed adamsardar closed 12 years ago

adamsardar commented 12 years ago

Issue with rooting the tree on a single leaf node e.g -og hs

Also, claims that it does not work for a binary tree

adamsardar commented 12 years ago

Script can now root on a single leaf.

Comments that the script doesn't work on a binary tree should have been more accurately described as that it did not remove a previous root after rerooting. This issue has been fixed as well.

adamsardar commented 12 years ago

Script can now root a non-binary tree.

As a summary, it can root:

a binary/non-binary rooted or unrooted tree on a midpoint between one or more nodes to act as an outgroup. If you have a local copy of superfamily, you can also use superfamily life domains (Archea or 'A') as outgroup.
