The minimum sum of branch lengths (S), or the minimum evolution (ME) principle, has been shown to be a good optimization criterion in phylogenetic inference. Unfortunately, the number of topologies to be analyzed is computationally prohibitive when a large number of taxa are involved. Therefore, sim
