plotSimmap: Plot stochastic character mapped tree

Description

Function plots a stochastic character mapped tree.

Usage

plotSimmap(tree,colors=NULL,fsize=1.0,ftype="reg",lwd=2,pts=TRUE)

Arguments

tree

a modified object of class "phylo" containing a stochastic mapping (e.g., see read.simmap & make.simmap).

colors

a vector with names translating the mapped states to colors - see Examples.

fsize

relative font size for tip labels.

ftype

font type - options are "reg", "i" (italics), "b" (bold), or "bi" (bold-italics).

lwd

line width for plotting.

pts

logical value indicating whether or not to plot filled circles at each vertex of the tree, as well as at transition points between mapped states. Default is TRUE.

Value

• plots a tree.
