Orthoflow is a workflow for phylogenetic inference of genome-scale datasets of protein-coding genes. Our goal was to make it straightforward to work from a combination of input sources including annotated contigs in Genbank format and FASTA files containing CDSs. It uses several state of the art inference methods for orthology inference, either based on HMM profiles or de novo inference of orthogroups. Through the use of OrthoSNAP, many additional ortholog alignments can be generated from multi-copy gene families. For phylogenetic inference, users can choose a supermatrix approach and/or gene tree inference followed by supertree reconstruction. Users can specify a range of alignment filtering settings to retain high-quality alignments for phylogenetic inference. The workflow produces a detailed report that, in addition to the phylogenetic results, includes a range of diagnostics to verify the quality of the results.
