ConsTree 1.0.0 (2026-09-07)

First public release.

Split-based consensus methods:

• Strict(), Majority() / MajorityRule(): wrappers around TreeTools::Consensus().
• Loose(): loose (semi-strict / combinable-component) consensus.
• Greedy(): greedy (extended majority-rule) consensus.
• MajorityPlus(): majority-rule (+) consensus.
• Frequency(): frequency-difference consensus.

Rooted-tree consensus methods:

• Adams(): Adams consensus.
• RStar(): R* consensus, assembled from the strong clusters of the majority resolved-triplet set (Jansson, Sung, Vu & Yiu 2016).
• Local(): local consensus (MinRLC / MinILC).

Distance- and branch-length-based summaries:

• Average(): distance-based average consensus.
• Quartet(): tree minimizing the summed symmetric quartet distance to the inputs (Takazawa et al. 2026).
• Billera-Holmes-Vogtmann treespace summaries: BHVDistance() (Owen-Provan geodesic distance), BHVPairwiseDistances(), BHVMean() (Fréchet mean) and BHVVariance().

An introductory vignette (ConsTree) demonstrates each method family on worked exemplars.
