 +=====TreeKo=====
 +
 +Comparisons between tree topologies provide important information for many evolutionary studies. TreeKo is a method that allows the **comparison of any two tree topologies**,​ even those with missing leaves and duplications. This is important in **genome-wide analysis** since many trees do not have exact leaf pairings and therefore most tree comparison methods are rendered useless.
 +
 +In order to calculate the distance between two trees that contain duplications,​ **treeKo first prunes the trees** so that you obtain a list of trees that only contain one-to-one orthologs. Each collection of pruned trees is then compared to the other and two distances are calculated depending on whether the presence of duplication and loss events are considered a difference or not.
