Figure 5

Overview of functionality of OrthoSelect compared to other tools. The figure illustrates the differences in functionality between OrthoSelect and other tool for orthology prediction. Both approaches have in common that they build clusters of orthologous sequences. Moreover, OrthoSelect can handle EST sequences and correctly translate them and further processes these clusters to select only one sequence per taxon, compute sequence alignments and refine them. In contrast to the other tools, OrthoSelect outputs orthologous gene alignments that can be directly used the subsequent phylogenetic analysis.
