plot.bammdata {BAMMtools}

Plot BAMM-estimated macroevolutionary rates on a phylogeny

Description

plot.bammdata plots a phylogenetic tree from a bammdata object and colors each branch by the estimated rate of speciation, extinction, or trait evolution. Rates are not assumed to be constant in time, and the function can plot continuously-varying rates along individual branches.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'bammdata'
plot(
  x,
  tau = 0.01,
  method = "phylogram",
  xlim = NULL,
  ylim = NULL,
  vtheta = 5,
  rbf = 0.001,
  show = TRUE,
  labels = FALSE,
  legend = FALSE,
  spex = "s",
  lwd = 1,
  cex = 1,
  pal = "RdYlBu",
  mask = integer(0),
  mask.color = gray(0.5),
  colorbreaks = NULL,
  logcolor = FALSE,
  breaksmethod = "linear",
  color.interval = NULL,
  JenksSubset = 20000,
  par.reset = FALSE,
  direction = "rightwards",
  ...
)

Arguments

x

An object of class bammdata.

tau

A numeric indicating the grain size for the calculations. See documentation for dtRates.

method

A character string indicating the method for plotting the phylogenetic tree. method = "phylogram" (default) plots the phylogenetic tree using rectangular coordinates. method = "polar" plots the phylogenetic tree using polar coordinates.

xlim

A numeric vector of coordinates for the x-axis endpoints. Defaults to NULL, in which case they are calculated automatically. The x-axis corresponds to time when the phylogeny is plotted facing to the left or to the right. The time at the root equals zero.

ylim

A numeric vector of coordinates for the y-axis endpoints. Defaults to NULL, in which case they are calculated automatically. Tips are plotted at integer values beginning from zero and stepping by one when the phylogeny is plotted facing to the left or to the right.

vtheta

A numeric indicating the angular separation (in degrees) of the first and last terminal nodes. Ignored if method = "phylogram".

rbf

A numeric indicating the length of the root branch as a fraction of total tree height. Ignored if method = "phylogram".

show

A logical indicating whether or not to plot the tree. Defaults to TRUE.

labels

A logical indicating whether or not to plot the tip labels. Defaults to FALSE.

legend

A logical indicating whether or not to plot a legend for interpreting the mapping of evolutionary rates to colors. Defaults to FALSE.

spex

A character string indicating what type of macroevolutionary rates should be plotted. "s" (default) indicates speciation rates, "e" indicates extinction rates, and "netdiv" indicates net diversification rates. Ignored if ephy$type = "trait".

lwd

A numeric specifying the line width for branches.

cex

A numeric specifying the size of tip labels.

pal

A character string or vector of mode character that describes the color palette. See Details for explanation of options.

mask

An optional integer vector of node numbers specifying branches that will be masked with mask.color when plotted.

mask.color

The color for the mask.

colorbreaks

A numeric vector of percentiles delimiting the bins for mapping rates to colors. If NULL (default) bins are calculated from the rates that are passed with the bammdata object.

logcolor

Logical. Should colors be plotted on a log scale.

breaksmethod

Method used for determining color breaks. See help file for assignColorBreaks.

color.interval

Min and max value for the mapping of rates. If NULL, then min and max are inferred from the data. NA can also be supplied for one of the two values. See details.

JenksSubset

If breaksmethod = "jenks", the number of regularly spaced samples to subset from the full rates vector. Only relevant for large datasets. See help file for assignColorBreaks.

par.reset

A logical indicating whether or not to reset the graphical parameters when the function exits. Defaults to FALSE.

direction

A character string. Options are "rightwards", "leftwards", "upwards", and "downwards", which determine the orientation of the tips when the phylogeny plotted.

...

Further arguments passed to par.

Details

To calculate rates, each branch of the phylogeny is discretized into a number of small segments, and the mean of the marginal posterior density of the rate of speciation/extinction or trait evolution is calculated for each such segment. Rates are mapped to colors such that cool colors represent slow rates and warm colors represent fast rates. When the tree is plotted each of these small segments is plotted so that changes in rates through time and shifts in rates are visible as gradients of color. The spex argument determines the type of rate that will be calculated. spex = "s" will plot speciation rates, spex = "e" will plot extinction rates, and spex = "netdiv" will plot diversification rates (speciation - extinction). Note that if x$type = "trait" the spex argument is ignored and rates of phenotypic evolution are plotted instead. If legend = TRUE the function will plot a legend that contains the mapping of colors to numerical values.

A number of color palettes come built in with BAMMtools. Color-blind friendly options include:

• BrBG

• PiYG

• PRGn

• PuOr

• RdBu

• RdYlBu

• BuOr

• BuOrRd

• DkRdBu

• BuDkOr

• GnPu

Some color-blind unfriendly options include:

• RdYlGn

• Spectral

• temperature

• terrain

Some grayscale options include:

• grayscale

• revgray

For more information about these color palettes visit https://colorbrewer2.org/ and https://pjbartlein.github.io/datagraphics/color_scales.html or use the help files of the R packages RColorBrewer and dichromat.

Additionally, any vector of valid named colors may also be used. The only restriction is that the length of this vector be greater than or equal to three (you can provide a single color, but in this case the entire tree will be assigned the same color). The colors should be ordered from cool to warm as the colors will be mapped from low rates to high rates in the order supplied (e.g. pal=c("darkgreen", "yellow2", "red")). The option pal = "temperature" uses the rich.colors function written by Arni Magnusson for the R package gplots.

Internally plot.bammdata checks whether or not rates have been calculated by looking for a component named "dtrates" in the bammdata object. If rates have not been calculated plot.bammdata calls dtRates with tau. Specifying smaller values for tau will result in smoother-looking rate changes on the tree. Note that smaller values of tau require more computation. If the colorbreaks argument is NULL a map of rates to colors is also made by calling assignColorBreaks with NCOLORS = 64. A user supplied colorbreaks argument can be passed as well. This allows one to plot parts of a tree while preserving the map of rates to colors that was made using rates for the entire tree.

If color.interval is defined, then those min and max values override the automatic detection of min and max. This might be useful if some small number of lineages have very high or very low rates, such that the map of colors is being skewed towards these extremes, resulting in other rate variation being drowned out. If specified, the color ramp will be built between these two color.interval values, and the rates outside of the color interval range will be set to the highest and lowest color. The total number of colors will also be increased such that 64 color bins are found within the color.interval.

If plot.bammdata is called repeatedly with the same bammdata object, computation can be reduced by first calling dtRates in the global environment.

Value

Returns (invisibly) a list with three components.

• coords: A matrix of plot coordinates. Rows correspond to branches. Columns 1-2 are starting (x,y) coordinates of each branch and columns 3-4 are ending (x,y) coordinates of each branch. If method = "polar" a fifth column gives the angle(in radians) of each branch.

• colorbreaks: A vector of percentiles used to group macroevolutionary rates into color bins.

• colordens: A matrix of the kernel density estimates (column 2) of evolutionary rates (column 1) and the color (column 3) corresponding to each rate value.
