  * The OTU (Operational Taxonomic Unit) perspective is an important use-case. 
   * Species tree hypothesis testing: splitting a given set of trees into subsets of trees as a function of compatibility to a given (set of) species tree(s). Degree of compatibility can be expressed as minimal sum of duplications needed to reconcile the gene with a species tree. I.e. measurement of the percentage of gene trees supporting an ecdysozoan versus a coelomata hypothesis.
- * Problem: the query topology will be given with either gene name labels, or species name labels, but the labels of the trees will be OTUs.
+   * Problem: the query topology will be given with either gene name labels, or species name labels, but the labels of the trees will be OTUs.
    * Hence, each OTU needs to be linked to the gene name(s) and taxon names, and it needs to be possible to specify that matching tree nodes use the linked taxon or gene names.
   * The analysis mentioned above could be extended by asking questions about the (majority of) functional categories supporting a given species tree. These examples require association of the following data with gene tree nodes: taxonomy identifier, gene identifier.
