This site has been replaced by the new QIIME 2 “amplicon distribution” documentation, as of the 2025.4 release of QIIME 2. You can still access the content from the “old docs” here for the QIIME 2 2024.10 and earlier releases, but we recommend that you transition to the new documentation at https://amplicon-docs.qiime2.org. Content on this site is no longer updated and may be out of date.
Are you looking for:

learning resources for microbiome metagenome analysis? See the MOSHPIT documentation.

Docstring:
Usage: qiime phylogeny fasttree [OPTIONS] Construct a phylogenetic tree with FastTree. Inputs: --i-alignment ARTIFACT FeatureData[AlignedSequence] Aligned sequences to be used for phylogenetic reconstruction. [required] Parameters: --p-n-threads NTHREADS The number of threads. Using more than one thread runs the non-deterministic variant of `FastTree` (`FastTreeMP`), and may result in a different tree than single-threading. See http://www.microbesonline.org/fasttree/#OpenMP for details. (Use `auto` to automatically use all available cores) [default: 1] Outputs: --o-tree ARTIFACT The resulting phylogenetic tree. Phylogeny[Unrooted] [required] Miscellaneous: --output-dir PATH Output unspecified results to a directory --verbose / --quiet Display verbose output to stdout and/or stderr during execution of this action. Or silence output if execution is successful (silence is golden). --example-data PATH Write example data and exit. --citations Show citations and exit. --use-cache DIRECTORY Specify the cache to be used for the intermediate work of this action. If not provided, the default cache under $TMP/qiime2/will be used. IMPORTANT FOR HPC USERS: If you are on an HPC system and are using parallel execution it is important to set this to a location that is globally accessible to all nodes in the cluster. --help Show this message and exit.
