I have the correct species tree for an analysis and I would want orthofinder to use it to detect orthologs; it possible to specify a tree for orthofinder?

Hi Alex,

Yes it is. The easiest way to do this is to run OrthoFinder first, and then reanalyse with your tree.

You can do this using the option

-ft PREVIOUS_RESULTS_DIR -s SPECIES_TREE_FILE

This should be quite quick, as it just runs the final steps

Thanks,

Laurie
