Inference of Large Phylogenies Using Neighbour-Joining
[chapter]
2011
Communications in Computer and Information Science
The neighbour-joining method is a widely used method for phylogenetic reconstruction which scales to thousands of taxa. However, advances in sequencing technology have made data sets with more than 10,000 related taxa widely available. Inference of such large phylogenies takes hours or days using the Neighbour-Joining method on a normal desktop computer because of the O(n 3 ) running time. RapidNJ is a search heuristic which reduce the running time of the Neighbour-Joining method significantly
