[Treesoft-treefam] Clean vs Seed Trees ?

[Sebastien M. <Seb...@un...>]

Hi

Following 'Instructions' link on family pages I thought that Clean trees 
are clean because they use only sequences from sequenced species. And 
they are not manually curated compared to seed trees.
Most of the time clean trees are larger than seed trees (e.g. TF101001).

In some cases, e.g. TF106228, clean trees are smaller than seed trees. 
Although only sequenced species are available in the seed tree AND in 
the clean tree.


So, what are the real differences between Clean, Seed and Full trees in 
TreeFam ?

Only Clean trees in TreeFam B ?

What should be the best kind of tree for large scale phylogenetic studies ?

Thanks
