# *treespace*: exploration of landscapes of phylogenetic trees

*treespace* implements new methods for the exploration and analysis of
distributions of phylogenetic trees for a given set of taxa.

## Installing *treespace*

To install the development version from github:

    library(devtools)
    install_github("thibautjombart/treespace")

The stable version can be installed from CRAN using:

    install.packages("treespace")

Then, to load the package, use:

    library("treespace")

    ## Loading required package: ape

    ## Loading required package: ade4

## Content overview

The main functions implemented in *treespace* are:

-   **`treespace`**: explore landscapes of phylogenetic trees

-   **`treespaceServer`**: open up an application in a web browser for
    an interactive exploration of the diversity in a set of trees

-   **`findGroves`**: identify clusters of similar trees

-   **`plotGroves`**: scatterplot of groups of trees, and
    **`plotGrovesD3`** which enables interactive plotting based on d3.js

-   **`medTree`**: find geometric median tree(s) to summarise a group of
    trees

-   **`wiwTreeDist`**: find the distance between transmission trees by
    comparing their MRCI depth matrices

-   **`wiwMedTree`**: find the median of a list of transmission
    scenarios

-   **`relatedTreeDist`**: calculate the distances between trees whose
    tips belong to the same categories but are not necessarily
    identically labelled

-   **`treeConcordance`**: calculate the concordance between a category
    tree and an individuals tree

Other functions are central to the computations of distances between
trees:

-   **`treeVec`**: characterise a tree by a vector

-   **`treeDist`**: find the distance between two tree vectors

-   **`multiDist`**: find the pairwise distances of a list of trees

-   **`refTreeDist`**: find the distances of a list of trees from a
    reference tree

-   **`tipDiff`**: for a pair of trees, list the tips with differing
    ancestry

-   **`plotTreeDiff`**: plot a pair of trees, highlighting the tips with
    differing ancestry

-   **`findMRCIs`**: find the most recent common infector (MRCI) matrix
    from “who infected whom” information

-   **`tipsMRCAdepths`**: similar to `treeVec` but the output is a
    matrix where columns 1 and 2 correspond to tip labels and column 3
    gives the depth of the MRCA of that pair of tips

Distributed datasets include:

-   **`woodmiceTrees`**: illustrative set of 201 trees built using the
    neighbour-joining and bootstrapping example from the *woodmice*
    dataset in the *ape* documentation.

-   **`DengueTrees`**: 500 trees sampled from a BEAST posterior set of
    trees from (Drummond and Rambaut, 2007)

-   **`DengueSeqs`**: 17 dengue virus serotype 4 sequences from
    (Lanciotti *et al.*, 1997), from which the `DengueTrees` were
    inferred.

-   **`DengueBEASTMCC`**: the maximum clade credibility (MCC) tree from
    the `DengueTrees`.
