| − | In MrBayes, if you run the program with the constraints of monophyletic groups, you are forcing the query sequence '''not''' to be part of these groups. So that won't work.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Instead, run it without the constraints and simply check how often the query sequence is member of a partition that only contains one particular phylogenetic group as members (at any phylognetic level, e.g. species, genus, family, order, etc).
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Remember, MrBayes will output the probabililities of specific groups (or partitions) directly. So you don't have to do anything with trees yourself.

| − | | + | |
| − | OK, so plateauing around 100,000 means that we should not use the first 100,000 iterations (1000 samples with samplefreq=100). We then want to know often the query sequence is part of a bipartition which, in addition to the the query sequence itself, only contain members of a particular taxonomic group. We want to do that at all taxonomic levels. You use the <tt>sumt burnin=1000</tt> command to get output that specifies all the most supported partitions. For each taxonomic assignment in you database data, you then check how many times the query sequence is a member of at least one partition (one of the two sets defined by an edge in the tree) which except for the query sequence only counts sequences belonging to that taxonomix assignment as its members.

| − | For example, if you have 8 database sequences and sequence 1, 2, 3 and 5 belong to group 'waggadoodles', and you have the following output:
| + | |
| − | <pre>
| + | |
| − | ...*.***.
| + | |
| − | *.......*
| + | |
| − | .*......*
| + | |
| − | ******..*
| + | |
| − | ..**....*
| + | |
| − | </pre>
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | where the last sequence is the query sequence, then the probability of the query sequence belonging to the waggadoodles is 60% because it formed a unqiue (monophyletic) group with at least some waggadoodles in 3 out of 5 cases (case 1, 2 and 3).
