Bootstrap and rogue identification tests for phylogenetic analyses.

Most phylogenetic tree-generating programs produce a fully dichotomous phylogenetic tree. However, as different markers may produce distinct topologies for the same set of organisms, topological tests are used to estimate the statistical reliability of the clades. In this protocol, we provide step-by-step instructions on how to perform the widely used bootstrap test using MEGA. However, a single unstable lineage, also known as a rogue lineage, may decrease the bootstrap proportions in many branches of the tree. This occurs because rogue taxa tend to bounce between clades from one pseudo-replicate to the next, lowering bootstrap proportions for many correct clades. Thus, it is important to identify and exclude rogue taxa before initiating a final phylogenetic analysis; here, we provide this protocol using the RogueNaRok platform.
