AbstractWe report a major update of the MAFFT multiple sequence alignment program. This version has several new features, including options for adding unaligned sequences into an existing alignment, adjustment of direction in nucleotide alignment, constrained alignment and parallel processing, which were implemented after the previous major update. This report shows actual examples to explain how these features work, alone and in combination. Some examples incorrectly aligned by MAFFT are also shown to clarify its limitations. We discuss how to avoid misalignments, and our ongoing efforts to overcome such limitations.

F ig . 2.ITS alignments by different options of MAFFT, displayed on Jalview (Waterhouse et al. 2009). (A, B) Incorrect alignments by the FFT-NS-2 and L-INS-i algorithms, respectively. (C) An incorrect alignment by mafft-profile . The full-length sequences were aligned with the L-INS-i algorithm and then each new sequence was separately added to the full-length alignment, using mafft-profile . (D) Reasonable alignment by a two-step strategy. The –– 6merpair –– addfragments option was used at the second step. (E) Reordered version of D; sequences are ordered such that similar sequences are placed closely. All calculations were performed using 16 cores on a Linux PC with 2.67 GHz Intel Xeon E7-8837/256 GB RAM.

F ig . 3.(A) A part of output of the –– treeout option showing the phylogenetic positions of new sequences ( new# ) in the tree of the existing alignment ( backbone# ), estimated before the alignment calculation. This file also shows a Newick format tree of the existing alignment (not shown in this figure). For each new sequence, the nearest sequence in the existing alignment ( nearest sequence ), approximate distance to the nearest sequence ( approximate distance ), and the members of the sister group ( sister group ) are shown. (B) Graphical representation of (A).
