Properties
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| adjustDirection | string | Adjust direction: * `fast`: Enabled, quickly. * `accurate`: Enabled, accurately (slow). * `disabled`: Disabled, fastest. |
| gapExtensionPenalty | number | Gap extension penalty. |
| gapOpenPenalty | number | Gap open penalty. |
| maxIterations | integer | Max refinement iterations. Not applicable for auto strategy, as it will be selected automatically. |
| retree | integer | Tree rebuilding. Only used for 6-mer strategy. |
| strategy | string | MAFFT Strategy: * `auto`: Pick a strategy automatically based on the count and size of inputs. * `sixmer`: Use 6-mer distance for constructing the guide tree. * `localpair`: Compute local pairwise ali |
