Invalid Fasta Files After Pargene

[Andrew]

Dear Benoit, 

I have been using generax after an inferring single gene trees using pargenes, and preparing my families file with the script supplied.

I noticed that my around 3318 of my families were classed as invalid. 

I checked the pargenes output for those families and it looked ok. 

But focusing on one example, I noticed that pargenes had selected model LG+I, but the families file was listing the model as LG+IU.

Sure enough, every failed family was listed as a model with "+IU" in the families file. 

Possibly just a bug in the script for preparing the families file in pargenes, but thought it might be useful for people to know. 

Thanks,

Andrew

Dear Andrew,

Thanks for your message. Could you send me a subset of the alignments, such that I can reproduce and fix this?

Many thanks,

Benoit

Dear Benoit, 

So sorry I missed this response.

I will check through the files on Monday and pull out some of the alignments that had the issue.

I'd imagine it is just a problem with the families file python script supplied with pargenes/generax (I forgot which sorry!) 

Thanks,

Andrew

I should say, changing everything from LG+IU to LG+I resolved the problem for me and the families were no longer seen as invalid.
