- Each cluster has a different color.
- Click on the upper buttons to display separately the information of each cluster.
- Click on the circles at each tree to display its corresponding merged motifs.

### Definitions

- Logo tree.
  This results shows the hierarchical tree with its logo alignment of one cluster.
  The logos are shown in Forward (left logo) and Reverse (right logo) orientation.
- Branch-motifs.
  On the trees are displayed the branch number that is the number in which the motifs were incorporated in the tree.
  The Branch-Motifs table shows the logo in both orientations and the link to the file in TRANSFAC format with the branch-motif.
