21,757 Citations2009Patrick D. Schloss, Sarah L. Westcott +13 more
M mothur is used as a case study to trim, screen, and align sequences; calculate distances; assign sequences to operational taxonomic units; and describe the α and β diversity of eight marine samples previously characterized by pyrosequencing of 16S rRNA gene fragments.
Systematic BiologyA Simple, Fast, and Accurate Algorithm to Estimate Large Phylogenies by Maximum Likelihood
16,975 Citations2003Stéphane Guindon, Olivier Gascuel
This work has used extensive and realistic computer simulations to show that the topological accuracy of this new method is at least as high as that of the existing maximum-likelihood programs and much higher than the performance of distance-based and parsimony approaches.
BioinformaticsRAxML-VI-HPC: maximum likelihood-based phylogenetic analyses with thousands of taxa and mixed models
15,911 Citations2006Alexandros Stamatakis
UNLABELLED RAxML-VI-HPC (randomized axelerated maximum likelihood for high performance computing) is a sequential and parallel program for inference of large phylogenies with maximum likelihood (ML) that has been used to compute ML trees on two of the largest alignments to date.

Systematic and Applied MicrobiologyA standard operating procedure for phylogenetic inference (SOPPI) using (rRNA) marker genes
89 Citations2008Jörg Peplies, Renzo Kottmann +2 more
This standard operating procedure for phylogenetic inference (SOPPI) offers a helping hand for working through the process from sampling in the field to phylogenetic tree reconstruction and publication, and is mainly focused on using the ribosomal RNA as a universal phylogenetic marker, but the principles and recommendations can be applied to any valid marker gene.
