phylonet input tree with bootstrap

I am attemping to use phylonet to investigate the gene flow among species. My input are gene trees with branch length and bootstraps. I have tried three formats of the same input trees but got different output network, without any error report. So could someone tell me which format is the correct one for phylonet? Thanks ! The three formats I used as below:

  1. ((SpeA : BL, Spe: BL)BL : BS , SpeC : BL); ### BL : branch length; BS : bootstrap
  2. ((SpeA : BL, Spe: BL) : BL : BS , SpeC : BL); ### add a ":" after the ")"
  3. ((SpeA : BL, Spe: BL) : BL , SpeC : BL); ### remove the bootstrap

only format 2 got the "#H1" in the output network.

phylonet bootstrap tree format

I am afraid but I've never used phylonet. I don't know if you have to use it or you can choose another software. I recommend you to use Figtree, trex .. but in this web site you can find your solution. I hope these resources could help you. ;)
