Manipulating Tree with Data
Guangchuang Yu · 2022
All the tree data parsed/merged by treeio can be converted to a tidy data frame using the tidytree package. The tidytree package provides tidy interfaces to manipulate trees with associated data. External data can be linked to phylogeny or evolutionary data obtained from different sources can be merged using tidyverse verbs. The tidytree package defines treedata class to store a phylogenetic tree with associated data. The treeio package serves as an infrastructure that enables various types of phylogenetic data inferred from common analysis programs to be imported and used in R. A phylogenetic tree can be rerooted with a specified outgroup. Tree visualization is supported by ggtree.
