Details
The trees in this release were generated with the following command line:
bash global_tree_gisaid_start_tree.sh -i [gisaid.fasta] -p [previous_iteration] -t 250
-
[gisaid.fasta] is the fasta file of high coverage and complete raw sequences from GISAID up to and including the date in the title of the release, determined by the 'submission date' filter on GISAID
-
[previous_iteration] is the filepath of the previous release, this is used to provide the
excluded_sequences.tsv
andft_SH.tree
files as the starting points of the current iteration.
