dRep

Reduces the computational time for pair-wise genome set comparisons by orders of magnitude. dRep sequentially applies an inaccurate estimation of genome distance and a slow but accurate measure of average nucleotide identity. It is easy to use, highly customizable, and parallelizable. The tool can perform rapid pairwise genomic comparisons (without de-replication) to enable visualization of the degree of similarity among groups of similar genomes.
