plot (phytree)
Description
plot(Tree) draws a phylogenetic tree object into a MATLAB figure as
a phylogram. The significant distances between branches and nodes
are in the horizontal direction. Vertical distances have no significance
and are selected only for display purposes. Handles to graph elements
are stored in the figure field UserData so that you can easily modify
graphic properties.
plot(Tree, ActiveBranches) hides the nonactive branches and
all of their descendants. ActiveBranches is a logical array of size
numBranches x 1 indicating the active branches.
plot(..., 'Type', TypeValue) selects a method for drawing a
phylogenetic tree.
plot(...,'Orientation', OrientationValue) orients a phylogenetic
tree within a figure window. The Orientation property is valid only for
phylogram and cladogram trees.
plot(...,'BranchLabels', BranchLabelsValue) hides or displays
branch labels placed next to the branch node.
plot(...,'LeafLabels', LeafLabelsValue) hides or displays leaf
labels placed next to the leaf nodes.
plot(...,'TerminalLabels', TerminalLabelsValue) hides or
displays terminal labels. Terminal labels are placed over the axis tick
labels and ignored when Type= 'radial'.
H = plot(...) returns a structure with handles to the graph elements.
Examples
tr = phytreeread('pf00002.tree')
plot(tr,'Type','radial')
Graph element properties can be modified as follows:
h=get(gcf,'UserData')
set(h.branchNodeLabels,'FontSize',6,'Color',[.5 .5 .5])
