GToTree: a user-friendly workflow for phylogenomics.

ABSTRACT:

Summary

Genome-level evolutionary inference (i.e. phylogenomics) is becoming an increasingly essential step in many biologists' work. Accordingly, there are several tools available for the major steps in a phylogenomics workflow. But for the biologist whose main focus is not bioinformatics, much of the computational work required-such as accessing genomic data on large scales, integrating genomes from different file formats, performing required filtering, stitching different tools together etc.-can be prohibitive. Here I introduce GToTree, a command-line tool that can take any combination of fasta files, GenBank files and/or NCBI assembly accessions as input and outputs an alignment file, estimates of genome completeness and redundancy, and a phylogenomic tree based on a specified
