There is growing interest in reconstructing phylogenies from the copious amounts of genome sequencing projects that target related viral, bacterial or eukaryotic organisms. To facilitate the construction of standardized and robust phylogenies for disparate types of projects, we have developed a complete bioinformatic workflow, with a web-based component to perform phylogenetic and molecular evolutionary (PhaME) analysis from sequencing reads, draft assemblies or completed genomes of closely related organisms. Furthermore, the ability to incorporate raw data, including some metagenomic samples containing a target organism (e.g. from clinical samples with suspected infectious agents), shows promise for the rapid phylogenetic characterization of organisms within complex samples without the need for prior assembly.
