Comparing trees in a phylogenetic relationship repository

Scientists are able to use many different phylogenetic analysis tools to assist them in their research. The data collection and data analysis processes can take days or weeks to complete. Having this data available in a repository would reduce this process time and allow researchers to spend more time analyzing data instead of collecting it. We collected data for 21 completely sequenced genomes and created an intuitive interface for browsing the genomes. The interface allows users to search this data including the pre-calculated phylogenetic trees that are stored in the database. We have also developed a new method for comparing a large set of phylogenetic trees so users can search the database based on a user given hypothesis tree.
