Heliconius gene tree dataset

Description

A text file dataset for Heliconius butterflies containing 2909 gene trees on 7 taxa, with 4 individuals sampled for each of 3 of the taxa, for a total of 16 leaves per gene tree. This is a subset of the data of Martin et al. (2013).

Format

A text file with 2909 metric Newick gene trees each with 16 leaves labelled:
chioneus.553, chioneus.560, chioneus.564, chioneus.565,
ethilla.67, hecale.273, melpomeneFG.13435, melpomeneFG.9315,
melpomeneFG.9316, melpomeneFG.9317, pardalinus.371, rosina.2071,
rosina.531, rosina.533, rosina.546, sergestus.202

Details

File is accessed as system.file("extdata","dataHeliconiusMartin",package="MSCquartets"), for example via the ape command:
