ParGenes: a tool for massively parallel model selection and phylogenetic tree inference on thousands of genes.MOTIVATION
 We present ParGenes, a tool for simultaneously determining the best-fit model and inferring maximum likelihood (ML) phylogenies on thousands of independent MSAs using supercomputers.


 ParGenes executes common phylogenetic pipeline steps such as model-testing, ML inference(s), bootstrapping and computation of branch support values via a single parallel program invocation.  We evaluated ParGenes by inferring > 20 000 phylogenetic gene trees with bootstrap support values from Ensembl Compara and VectorBase alignments in 28 h on a cluster with 1024 nodes.
