\name{plotTree}
\alias{plotTree}
\title{Plots rooted phylogenetic tree}
\usage{
plotTree(tree, ...)
}
\arguments{
	\item{tree}{a phylogenetic tree in \code{"phylo"} format; or multiple trees as an object of class \code{"multiPhylo"}.}
	\item{...}{optional arguments.}
}
\details{
	Plots a rooted phylogram or cladogram.
}
\description{
	Essentially a wrapper for \code{\link{plotSimmap}}. Arguments in \code{...} are passed to \code{\link{plotSimmap}}, with the exception of optional argument \code{color} which is used to determine the plotted color of the branch lengths of the tree.
}
\value{
	This function plots a rooted phylogram or cladogram.
