VCF2Dis: an ultra-fast and efficient tool to calculate pairwise genetic distance and construct population phylogeny from VCF files

We present VCF2Dis, a straightforward and efficient tool for calculating genetic distance and constructing population phylogeny directly from large-scale genotype data. VCF2Dis has been widely applied, facilitating the exploration of population relationship in extensive genome sequencing studies.
