Using affinity propagation clustering for identifying bacterial clades and subclades with whole-genome sequences of Francisella tularensis.
By combining a reference-independent SNP analysis and average nucleotide identity (ANI) with affinity propagation clustering (APC), we developed a significantly improved methodology allowing resolving phylogenetic relationships, based on objective criteria. These bioinformatics tools can be used as...
