Combining distance matrices on identical taxon sets for multi-gene analysis with singular value decomposition.
We present a simple and effective method for combining distance matrices from multiple genes on identical taxon sets to obtain a single representative distance matrix from which to derive a combined-gene phylogenetic tree. The method applies singular value decomposition (SVD) to extract the greatest...
