Script concatenate supermatrix

Question

[ericcabarroso]

Hi, does anyone knows a script for concatenating different genes into a supermatrix? I would need one that doesn't requires identical sequences name in the different files. I am trying evobiR (https://github.com/coleoguy/evobir) but it is not updated and I get errors.

Maybe you can explain in more detail your problem? What are the different genes you want to concatenate? What are the gene names? What is the error message evobiR throws?

Thanks for the answer! I just found a solution: phyutility (http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/man1/phyutility.1.html). Used this command: phyutility -concat -in *.fasta -out outpt_ phyutility_test.fasta

The problem with evobiR is that it requires installation of many dependencies, and some are not updated to the latest version of R. So I would have to search for the compatible R version and reinstall everything.
