Hey,

Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

I have been following the same protocol to build bacterial trees for a long time. I have no idea why it shows errors this time. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi,

Can you try the version v2.2.2.3 (from https://github.com/iqtree/iqtree2/releases) and see whether the issue still exists? Thanks.

Thomas

Hi,

Because you would like to do bootstrapping, you should use "MFP" instead of "MF".

MFP: "Find best partition scheme followed by tree inference and bootstrap"

That means your syntax should be: iqtree2.exe -s Russula.fas -spp Partition.nex –m MFP+MERGE -bb 1000

Hi Aniket,

By the way, when I copied and pasted your command, it didn't work. However, it worked when I typed the command again (exactly, but changed to MF to MFP). I guess there were some hidden characters.

Hey everyone, 

I am facing a similar problem using IQ-TREE multicore version 2.2.0. 

With the following command, I get the following error:

iqtree2 -s MYLK_domains_MSA.fa -m MFP -B 1000 -alrt 1000 -abayes -nt AUTO

ERROR: For mixture model, you need to specify +F/+FO/+F{}/+FQ for every model
ERROR: For example: MIX{GTR+FO,GTR+F}

There are not hidden characters, etc. At least non that I can find. 

Thanks already for any help.
Regards, 
Fabian

Hi Fabian,

The issue should have been addressed in the later version. Can you try the latest version, say v2.2.2.5, at https://github.com/iqtree/iqtree2/releases ?

Thomas
