Abstract
We present a selection method designed for eliminating species redundancy in clusters of putative orthologous sequences, to be applied as a post-processing procedure to pre-clustered data obtained from other methods. The algorithm can always zero-out the cluster redundancy while preserving the number of species of the original cluster
