What changed

Existing evolutionary-analysis workflows could handle larger input and tree displays.

Scientific scope

2016 three-author MEGA7 version paper and stated benchmarks; earlier/later releases and user discoveries excluded.

Evidence

The linked sources identify this contribution and its scope. WRS has not independently reconstructed the scientific claims. The record is the exact three-author 2016 MEGA7 paper and the version-specific engineering and benchmarks it reports. Earlier MEGA versions, later releases, underlying phylogenetic methods and analyses performed with MEGA remain separate.
