Progressive Alignment Overview in Phylogenetics
In the field of phylogenetics, the process of progressive alignment is crucial for aligning sequences and building evolutionary trees. This approach involves generating pairwise alignments, estimating distances, constructing guide trees, and aligning sequences progressively based on the tree. Needle
