The phrase "assigned branch" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts where a specific branch or division has been designated or allocated to someone or something, often in organizational or technical settings.
Example: "After reviewing the project requirements, I was given the assigned branch to oversee the development process."
Alternatives: "designated branch" or "allocated branch".
Officers beginning active duty attend the Basic Officer Leadership Course II/III (normally 10 to 16 weeks) for training in their assigned branch.
This taxon represents a recent divergence from B. thamnobates51,52,53,54, so B. sp. "emerald" was assigned as a sister taxon to B. thamnobates and assigned branch lengths close to zero (Supplementary Fig. S1).
Relatively indistinct turbidites are assigned branch numbers.
The number of time steps for each simulated sister pair was then generated by multiplying the assigned branch length value by 10.
This tree was subsequently rescaled assigning branch tips to time 0 and root to time 1.
Thus, the branch length method of Nee was used to assign branch lengths and avoid violations in BM assumptions.
A speciational model of evolution was used to assign branch lengths to this tree, with all branches assigned a length of 1.
These choices for the branch length settings were also used in [ 32], a more sophisticated approach might be to assign branch lengths to the hybridization network itself and then have the principal trees inherit these branch lengths.
The details about the algorithm for searching the best branch assignment for a specific topology are in Appendix 2. All of the two stage methods we considered selects a topology first and assign branch lengths conditional on that topology.
Many methods exist for selecting a representative topology for a set of unrooted trees, few exist for assigning branch lengths to a fixed topology, and even fewer for simultaneously setting the topology and branch lengths.
Instead, the number of clocks was in a first approach selected using an idea based on the gap statistic [26]: if there were actually k* clocks on the tree, then for kassign branches as it "should".
