Summary table
Uploaded data
This benchmark samples orthologs following a comb species tree from eukaryota species, infers gene trees from them and compare them with the expected species tree. Details on this benchmark are available in Altenhoff and Dessimoz, 2019 Phylogenetic and Functional Assessment of Orthologs Inference Projects and Methods. PLoS Computational Biology, 5(1): e1000262.

This benchmark samples orthologs from randomly sub-sampled species trees from the vertebrata clade, infers a gene tree from each sampled group and compares them with the expected species tree. Details on this benchmark are available in Altenhoff A et al., 2020 The Quest for Orthologs benchmark service and consensus calls in 2020. Nucl. Acids Res., 48:W1, W538–W545.

This benchmark computes how well the gene ontology annotations are conserved among the predicted orthologs. Details on this benchmark are available in Altenhoff and Dessimoz, 2019 Phylogenetic and Functional Assessment of Orthologs Inference Projects and Methods. PLoS Computational Biology, 5(1): e1000262.
This is an interactive plot of the results. You can enable/disable methods by clicking on the label in the legend, or hover over the data points to get extra information. The measures we use for precession and recall are explained in the documentation section.
