.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBdistmat\fR
is a command line program from EMBOSS (\(lqthe European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite\(rq)\&. It is part of the "Phylogeny:Molecular sequence" command group(s)\&.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.SS "Input section"
.PP
\fB\-sequence\fR \fIseqset\fR
.RS 4
File containing a sequence alignment\&.
.RE
.SS "Required section"
.PP
\fB\-nucmethod\fR \fIlist\fR
.RS 4
Multiple substitution correction methods for nucleotides\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-protmethod\fR \fIlist\fR
.RS 4
Multiple substitution correction methods for proteins\&.
.RE
.SS "Additional section"
.PP
\fB\-ambiguous\fR \fIboolean\fR
.RS 4
Option to use the ambiguous codes in the calculation of the Jukes\-Cantor method or if the sequences are proteins\&. Default value: N
.RE
.PP
\fB\-gapweight\fR \fIfloat\fR
.RS 4
Option to weight gaps in the uncorrected (nucleotide) and Jukes\-Cantor distance methods\&. Default value: 0\&.
.RE
.PP
\fB\-position\fR \fIinteger\fR
.RS 4
Choose base positions to analyse in each codon i\&.e\&. 123 (all bases), 12 (the first two bases), 1, 2, or 3 individual bases\&. Default value: 123
.RE
.PP
\fB\-calculatea\fR \fIboolean\fR
.RS 4
This will force the calculation of parameter \*(Aqa\*(Aq in the Jin\-Nei Gamma distance calculation, otherwise the default is 1\&.0 (see \-parametera option)\&. Default value: N
.RE
.PP
\fB\-parametera\fR \fIfloat\fR
.RS 4
User defined parameter \*(Aqa\*(Aq to be use in the Jin\-Nei Gamma distance calculation\&. The suggested value to be used is 1\&.0 (Jin et al\&.) and this is the default\&. Default value: 1\&.0
