MPBoot: fast phylogenetic maximum parsimony tree inference and bootstrap approximation

Abstract Background The nonparametric bootstrap is widely used to measure the branch support of phylogenetic trees. However, bootstrapping is computationally expensive and remains a bottleneck in phylogenetic analyses. Recently, an ultrafast bootstrap approximation (UFBoot) approach was proposed for...
