Abstract
Phylogenetic analysis has entered the genomics (multilocus) era. For less experienced researchers, conquering the large number of software programs required for a multilocus-based phylogenetic reconstruction can be somewhat daunting and time-consuming. PhyloSuite, a software with a user-friendly GUI, was designed to make this process more accessible by integrating multiple software programs needed for multilocus and single-gene phylogenies and further streamlining the whole process. In this protocol, we aim to explain how to conduct each step of the phylogenetic pipeline and tree-based analyses in PhyloSuite. We also present a new version of PhyloSuite (v1.2.3), wherein we fixed some bugs, made some…
