Overview

The phylozoo.core.network module provides classes for working with phylogenetic networks, which represent evolutionary relationships including reticulate events such as hybridization, recombination, and horizontal gene transfer.

PhyloZoo provides two main network types: DirectedPhyNetwork for rooted networks with all edges directed, and SemiDirectedPhyNetwork for networks with directed hybrid edges and undirected tree edges, allowing flexible representation without requiring a fixed root.

Submodules

• Directed Networks - Rooted networks with all edges directed

• Semi-Directed Networks - Networks with mixed directed and undirected edges
