circular_tree: Plot an inside-out circular tree

Description

Plot a tree in a circular manner with the tips pointing inward

Usage

circular_tree(phy,ratio=0.5,def=1000,pos_out=FALSE,tip_labels=TRUE,cex_tips=0.5)

Arguments

phy

a class phylo object

ratio

the ratio of the tree size compared to the plot size

def

the def parameter controls the granularity of the curves

pos_out

a matrix with the x and y coordinates of the branches extremities (i.e. nodes and tips) is outputed when set to TRUE

tip_labels

whether or not the tiplabels should be plotted

cex_tips

the size of the tiplabels

test_tree <- rtree(20)

circular_tree(test_tree)
