You enter an alien world as a renowned computational biologist. The below table is presented to you as a part of a preliminary study done by a group of scientists to study the local fauna around the base camp. They analyze the DNA and figure out that there are only two bases “+” and “0”. The below table represents the DNA sequence in 6 positions for the different species found. You build a phylogenetic tree that best represents the evolutionary relationship among the species, using the Neighbor-Joining algorithm (on the Hamming distance matrix).
