About mafft
From Debian's package description
MAFFT is a multiple sequence alignment program which offers three accuracy-oriented methods:
- L-INS-i (probably most accurate; recommended for <200 sequences; iterative refinement method incorporating local pairwise alignment information),
- G-INS-i (suitable for sequences of similar lengths; recommended for <200 sequences; iterative refinement method incorporating global pairwise alignment information),
- E-INS-i (suitable for sequences containing large unalignable regions; recommended for <200 sequences),
and five speed-oriented methods:
- FFT-NS-i (iterative refinement method; two cycles only),
- FFT-NS-i (iterative refinement method; max. 1000 iterations),
- FFT-NS-2 (fast; progressive method),
- FFT-NS-1 (very fast; recommended for >2000 sequences; progressive method with a rough guide tree),
- NW-NS-PartTree-1 (recommended for ∼50,000 sequences; progressive method with the PartTree algorithm).
