13 **What it does**
14
15 Use this tool to create a list of terminal branches from one or more trees that exceed a length cut-off.
16
17 This tool calculates the statistics for the branch-length distribution in each newick tree. A terminal branch whose length falls past a specified number of standard deviations is reported in
18 the output.
19 The list output from this tool may be used to filter/prune the original PHYTAB sequence file using the tool "Prune phytab using list".

23 **Example**
24
25 Input File (2 tab-delimited columns)::
26
27 GeneA (((Felis_catus:0.234,Canis_familiaris:0.345):0.567,Equus_monoclonius:3.98):0.564,Mus_musculus:0.456):0.0;
28 GeneB (((Felis_catus:4.123,Canis_familiaris:0.035):0.234,Equus_monoclonius:1.12):0.345,Mus_musculus:0.234):0.0;

30 Currently, taxon names must only include only alphanumeric characters in two fields delimted by one underscore, for example:
31
32 Genus_species
33 GENUSspecies_sample2010
34
35 If 3 standard deviations are selected as the cut-off, then the output from the example above will yield::
36
37 Equus_monoclonius geneA
38 Felis_catus geneB
39
40 Only terminal branches will be identified. (To remove entire clades subtended by long internal branches, see the tool "phytab_LB_pruner".)
