- Abstract
Large-scale selection analyses of protein-coding sequences and phylogenetic tree reconstructions require suitable trees in Newick format. We developed the NewickTreeModifier (NTM), a simple web-based tool to trim and modify Newick trees for such analyses. The users can choose provided master trees or upload a tree to prune it to selected species available in FASTA, NEXUS, or PHYLIP sequence format with an internal converter, a simple species list, or directly determined from a checklist interface of the master trees. Plant, insect, and vertebrate master trees comprise the maximum number of species in an up-to-date phylogenetic order directly transferable to the pruned Newick outfile. NTM is available at https://retrogenomics.uni-muenster.de/tools/ntm.
