DACTAL: Divide-and-Conquer Trees (Almost) Without ALignments
Overview
- DACTAL (Divide-And-Conquer Trees without ALignments)
is a software package for estimating phylogenies from ultra-large
datasets with up to tens of thousands of unaligned
nucleotide sequences and with many kb of sequence length.
Upcoming beta/public version
A user-friendly beta/public
version will be released soon. Details will be posted on this webpage
as soon as that they are available.
