A Simple, Fast, and Accurate Algorithm to Estimate Large Phylogenies by Maximum Likelihood

The increase in the number of large data sets and the complexity of current probabilistic sequence evolution models necessitates fast and reliable phylogeny reconstruction methods. We describe a new approach, based on the maximum-likelihood principle, which clearly satisfies these requirements. The...
