Function

Plots a cladogram- or phenogram-like rooted tree diagram

Description

Plots rooted phylogenies, cladograms, circular trees and phenograms in a wide variety of user-controllable formats. The program is interactive and allows previewing of the tree on PC, Macintosh, or X Windows screens, or on Tektronix or Digital graphics terminals. Final output can be to a file formatted for one of the drawing programs, for a ray-tracing or VRML browser, or one at can be sent to a laser printer (such as Postscript or PCL-compatible printers), on graphics screens or terminals, on pen plotters or on dot matrix printers capable of graphics.

Similar to DRAWTREE but plots rooted phylogenies.

Algorithm

DRAWGRAM interactively plots a cladogram- or phenogram-like rooted tree diagram, with many options including orientation of tree and branches, style of tree, label sizes and angles, tree depth, margin sizes, stem lengths, and placement of nodes in the tree. Particularly if you can use your computer to preview the plot, you can very effectively adjust the details of the plotting to get just the kind of plot you want.

To understand the working of DRAWGRAM and DRAWTREE, you should first read the Tree Drawing Programs web page in this documentation.

As with DRAWTREE, to run DRAWGRAM you need a compiled copy of the program, a font file, and a tree file. The tree file has a default name of intree. The font file has a default name of "fontfile". If there is no file of that name, the program will ask you for the name of a font file (we provide ones that have the names font1 through font6). Once you decide on a favorite one of these, you could make a copy of it and call it fontfile, and it will then be used by default. Note that the program will get confused if the input tree file has the number of trees on the first line of the file, so that numbr may have to be removed.

Usage

Data files

The font file has a default name of "fontfile". If there is no file of that name, the program will ask you for the name of a font file (we provide ones that have the names font1 through font6). Once you decide on a favorite one of these, you could make a copy of it and call it fontfile, and it will then be used by default.
