AbstractFelsenstein's bootstrap is the most commonly used method to measure branch support in phylogenetics. Current sequencing technologies can result in massive sampling of taxa (e.g. SARS-CoV-2). In this case, the sequences are very close, the trees are short, and the branches correspond to a small number of mutations (possibly 0). Nevertheless, these trees contain a strong signal, with unresolved parts but a low rate of false branches. With such data, Felsenstein's bootstrap is not satisfactory.
