geom_rootedge

Description

display root edge layer for a tree

Usage

geom_rootedge(rootedge = NULL, ...)

Arguments

rootedge

length of rootedge; use phylo$root.edge if rootedge = NULL (default).

...

additional parameters

Additional parameters can be referred to the following parameters:

  • size control the width of rootedge, defaults to 0.5.

  • colour color of rootedge, defaults to black.

  • linetype the type of line, defaults to 1.

  • alpha modify colour transparency, defaults to 1.

Details

geom_rootedge is used to create a rootedge as ggtree doesn’t plot the root edge by default.

Value

ggtree rootedge layer

Examples


library(ggtree)
set.seed(123)
## with root edge = 1
tree1 <- read.tree(text='((A:1,B:2):3,C:2):1;')
ggtree(tree1) + geom_tiplab() + geom_rootedge()

## without root edge
tree2 <- read.tree(text='((A:1,B:2):3,C:2);')
ggtree(tree2) + geom_tiplab() + geom_rootedge()

## setting root edge
tree2$root.edge <- 2
ggtree(tree2) + geom_tiplab() + geom_rootedge()

## specify length of root edge for just plotting
## this will ignore tree$root.edge
ggtree(tree2) + geom_tiplab() + geom_rootedge(rootedge = 3)
