How Can i test My optimal phylogenetic tree ??

Question

[eng_samar_zayed]

If i constructed phylogenetic tree by distance Matrix method and then retrieve my distance Matrix again from topology

is there a difference between original distance matrix and calculated matrix ??

the other question

i optimized my tree that constructed by distance method ... and i test my result by CONSEL Software and it was not logic

is CONSEL used for likelihood method only ??
