Abstract

We introduce Phylo-rs: a fast, extensible, general-purpose library for phylogenetic analysis and inference written in the Rust programming language. Phylo-rs leverages a combination of speed, memory-safety, and native WebAssembly support offered by Rust to provide a robust set of memory-efficient data structures and elementary phylogenetic algorithms. Phylo-rs is focused on efficient and convenient deployment of software aimed at large-scale phylogenetic analysis and inference. Phylo-rs is available under an open-source license on GitHub at https://github.com/sriram98v/phylo-rs , with documentation available at https://docs.rs/phylo/latest/phylo/ .
