Please acknowledge your use of Quartet and cite the relevant algorithm. For example, 'Quartet divergence (Smith 2019b) was calculated using the tqDist algorithm (Sand et al. 2014) implemented in the R package Quartet v1.4.0 (Smith 2019a).' For triplet distances, cite the CPDT algorithm (Jansson & Rajaby 2017).
