Serialize an annotated phylogenetic tree
Description
This function takes the given tree object and returns a string
representing the tree in the requested format. The difference between
the "newick" and "newick.named" formats is that the
former uses only node numbers in its output, whereas the latter uses
the tip labels (sanitized and deduplicated if necessary).
Usage
print_annotated(tree, format="nexus")
Arguments
tree |
a phylogentic tree, with optional annotations |
format |
a format specifier; either |
Details
The tree object should be either a "phylo" or
"multiPhylo" object. It may optionally be augmented with
annotations, as described in the documentation for the
parse_annotated function.
The output is a string suitable for writing to a file.
Value
a string containing a serialized tree.
