roundPhylogram: Plot a round phylogram

Description

Function plots one or multiple round phylograms.

Usage

roundPhylogram(tree, fsize=1.0, ftype="reg", lwd=2, mar=NULL, offset=NULL, 
	direction="rightwards", type="phylogram", xlim=NULL, ylim=NULL)

Arguments

tree
an object of class "phylo" or "multiPhylo" containing one or multiple phylogenies.
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.
mar
vector containing the margins for the plot to be passed to par. If not specified, the default margins are [0.1,0.1,0.1,0.1].
offset
offset for the tip labels.
direction
plotting direction. Only the option direction="rightwards" is presently supported.
type
plot type. Can be "phylogram" or "cladogram". If type="cladogram" then the branch lengths are not necessary (and, indeed, are not used).
xlim
x-limits for the plot.
ylim
y-limits for the plot.

Value

  • Plots a tree.

Details

The underscore character "_" is automatically swapped for a space in tip labels, as in plotSimmap.
