I used iqtree2 -s masked_alignment.fasta -m GTR -T 30 -fast -redo -czb -b 100 to construct a tree with bootstrap values.
It is strange that the consensus tree has both bootstrap values and polytomies. Is it possible to show only the bootstrap values and resolve all polytomies?

I also tried the command without '-czb', and there are still polytomies.

Hi there,

The consensus tree might indeed have polytomy. So that’s not unexpected.

If you want strictly bifurcating tree, then look at the ML tree. 

Cheers
