+
+ TESTONLY |
+ Perform standard model selection like jModelTest (for DNA) and ProtTest (for protein). Moreover, IQ-TREE also works for codon, binary and morphogical data. |
+
+
+ TEST |
+ Like -m TESTONLY but immediately followed by tree reconstruction using the best-fit model found. So this performs both model selection and tree inference within a single run. |
+
+
+ TESTNEWONLY |
+ Perform an extended model selection that additionally includes FreeRate model compared with -m TESTONLY. Recommended as replacement for -m TESTONLY. Note that LG4X is a FreeRate model, but by default is not included because it is also a protein mixture model. To include it, use -madd option (see table below). |
+
+
+ TESTNEW |
+ Like -m MF but immediately followed by tree reconstruction using the best-fit model found. |
+
+
+ TESTMERGEONLY |
+ Select best-fit partitioning scheme like PartitionFinder. |
+
+
+ TESTMERGE |
+ Like -m TESTMERGEONLY but immediately followed by tree reconstruction using the best partitioning scheme found. |
+
+
+ TESTNEWMERGEONLY |
+ Like -m TESTMERGEONLY but additionally includes FreeRate model. |
+
+
+ TESTNEWMERGE |
+ Like -m MF+MERGE but immediately followed by tree reconstruction using the best partitioning scheme found. |
