VeryFastTree

  • Description

    a new tool designed for efficient phylogenetic tree inference, specifically tailored to handle massive taxonomic datasets. It is a highly-tuned implementation based on the FastTree-2 tool that takes advantage of parallelization and vectorization strategies to speed up the inference of phylogenies for huge alignments.
