<p><strong>Distance Measures</strong></p>
<p>Trees are calculated on the basis of a measure of similarity
between each pair of sequences in the alignment :
- <ul>
- <li><strong>PID</strong><br>The percentage identity between
- the two sequences at each aligned position.
- <ul>
- <li>PID = Number of equivalent aligned non-gap symbols * 100 /
- Smallest number of non-gap positions in either of both sequences<br>
- <em>This is essentially the 'number of identical bases (or
- residues) per 100 base pairs (or residues)'.</em>
- </li>
- </ul>
- <li><strong>BLOSUM62, PAM250, DNA</strong><br>These options
- use one of the available substitution matrices to compute a sum of
- scores for the residue pairs at each aligned position. For details
- about each model, see the <a href="scorematrices.html">list of
- built-in score matrices.</a></li>

<li><strong>Sequence Feature Similarity</strong><br>Trees
are constructed from a distance matrix formed from Jaccard
distances between sequence features observed at each column of the
same type will be grouped together in trees computed with this
metric. <em>This measure was introduced in Jalview 2.9</em></li>
</ul>

<p><strong>Tree Construction Methods</strong></p>
<p>Jalview currently supports two kinds of agglomerative clustering
methods. These are not intended to substitute for rigorous
expensive than UPGMA.

<p>A newly calculated tree will be displayed in a new <a

addition, a new entry with the same tree viewer window name will be added in the Sort
