Hi,

In the cds file of each family, are the sequences acquired by back translating or are they real cds sequences? in case of backtranslating how did you choose between the trinucletides?

    Dear Faye,
    thanks for your question.
    We get all our CDS sequences from ensembl. Both protein and CDS are used in the tree building process. We use TreeBest to build a CDS alignment. It uses the protein alignment as a guide.

    Does that help?

    Cheers,
    Fabian
