Sequence data from four OTUs are provided in the table below with values provided as (percentage distance x 1000) measurements. Determine the phylogenetic tree from the data in the table below using the UPGMA procedure mentioned in class. A B C D
A - - - -
B 82 - - -
C 25 68 - -
D 136 120 92 -
Which tree represents the correct shape/structure of the tree determined from these data? Note that OTU C is placed on each tree and you should make the rest of your tree correspond to the position of C on the correct tree for all future answers to this question.
Tree 1 or Tree 2
Sequence data from four OTUs are provided i
Select the proper OTU for the parts of the tree labeled 3, 4, and 5 based on the labels of the correct tree.
Is 3 D, B, or A?
Is 4 D, B, or A?
Is 5 D, B, or A
Fill in the blanks with the proper numerical value for each branch labeled a - f on the correct tree. Round your answers properly to one decimal digit. If your answer is a whole number, just give the whole number and do not include decimal digits.
