On the Linear-Cost Subtree-Transfer Distance between Phylogenetic Trees
1999
Algorithmica
Di erent p h ylogenetic trees for the same group of species are often produced either by procedures that use diverse optimality criteria 16] or from di erent genes 12] in the study of molecular evolution. Comparing these trees to nd their similarities and dissimilarities (i.e. distance) i s thus an important issue in computational molecular biology. Several distance metrics including the nearest neighbor interchange (nni) distance and the subtree-transfer distance have been proposed and
