trimAl can consider several parameters, alone or in multiple combinations, in order to select the most-reliable positions in the alignment. These include the proportion of sequences with a gap, the level of residue similarity and, if several alignments for the same set of sequences are provided, the consistency level of columns among alignments. Moreover, trimAl allows to manually select a set of columns and sequences to be removed from the alignment. trimAl implements a series of automated algorithms that trim the alignment searching for optimum thresholds based on inherent characteristics of the input alignment, to be used so that the signal-to-noise ratio after alignment trimming phase is increased. ...
