Get 100 randomly selected mega-trees of Mammals from VertLife
Description
The first 50 phylogenies use the Node Dating Exponential backbone and the
second 50 use the Fossil Birth Death backbone (Upham et al. 2019). Because
of the large file size (~11 MB), this dataset is not bundled with the
package and is downloaded and cached locally on first use.
Usage
get_tree_mammal_n100_vertlife(force = FALSE)
Arguments
force
Logical. Re-download even if a local cache exists. Default FALSE.
Value
A multiPhylo object. Each phylogeny also has a data frame
genus_family_root with root node information for every unique genus
and family, usable for inserting new tips onto the phylogeny.
