I have used multiple sequences aligned file of protein data to generate a maximum parsimony tree, then I used the "bootstrap_trees(msa, times, tree_constructor)" function from biopython to generate bootstrap replicates of my MSA data. Since 

I have my original tree and bootstrap replicates for my tree, I want to ask how do I compare the topology (using python/biopython) for my tree with the bootstrap replicates so that for each edge in original tree the bootstrap support is shown. (Bootstrap support is the number of bootstrap trees that edge appears in.) Any help is greatly appreciated.

How to get bootstrap support of phylogenetic tree?
