Phylogenetic estimation software using Maximum Likelihood

The UShER toolkit includes a set of tools for for rapid, accurate placement of samples to existing phylogenies. While not restricted to SARS-CoV-2 phylogenetic analyses, it has enabled real-time phylogenetic analyses and genomic contact tracing in that its placement is orders of magnitude faster and more memory-efficient than previous methods.

BAYEsian genome SCAN for outliers, aims at identifying candidate loci under natural selection from genetic data, using differences in allele frequencies between populations. It is based on the multinomial-Dirichlet model.
