Introduction

NINJA is a fast neighbor-joining method for phylogenetic tree inference. According to benchmark tests, at the time of release, NINJA is the fastest available tool for computing correct neighbor-joining phylogenies for inputs of more than 10,000 sequences. It is more than 10x faster than the fastest implementation of the canonical neighbor-joining algorithm (QuickTree).
