is the tree built from bionj_tree.R tree/distances.phylip tree/tree.newick a phylogeny or cladogram?? #8

Hi

I use fastANI distance matrix, first converted to fastani.phylip using following code,

pairwise_identities_to_distance_matrix.py --max_dist 0.2 tree/fastani_output > tree/fastani.phylip

then creates a tree with

bionj_tree.R tree/distances.phylip tree/tree.newic

could this tree be considered as phylogenetic tree or just cladogram?? because the original data fastANI pairwise distance values.

Thank you so much for any help?

Best, Limin
