Workflow of HGT identification

Step 1: AI calculation

perl calculate_alien_index_pct.pl -c test.config

Step 2: Building tree:

mafft --thread 6 --auto $filename > ${gene}_aln.fasta

trimal -in ${gene}_aln.fasta -out ${gene}_aln_trimmed.fasta -automated1

iqtree-omp -nt 6 -st AA -s ${gene}_aln_trimmed.fasta -m TEST -mrate G4 -keep-ident -bb 1000 -pre ${gene}

Step 3: Midpoint root a phylogeny with R:

mytree <- read.tree("$filename")

midponit_mytree <- ladderize (midpoint(mytree))

write.tree (midponit_mytree, "${gene}midpoint.tree")
