In taxodist: Taxonomic Distance and Phylogenetic Lineage Computation
taxo_heatmap R Documentation
Plot a taxonomic heatmap
Description
Computes pairwise taxonomic distances and plots a heatmap with hierarchical
clustering dendrograms on the margins. Darker/hotter colors typically
represent smaller distances (closer relatives).
Usage
taxo_heatmap(taxa, ...)
Arguments
taxa
A character vector of taxon names, or a dist object from
distance_matrix.
...
Additional arguments passed to heatmap.
Value
Invisibly returns the underlying dist object.
Called primarily for its side effect (plotting).
Examples
taxa <- c("Tyrannosaurus", "Velociraptor", "Homo", "Panthera", "Quercus")
taxo_heatmap(taxa)
