When making a consensus tree using ape::consensus the branch lengths are lost. Is there a way to not lose the branch lengths? Or to add them somehow to the consensus tree after making it.
library(ape) > cat("owls(((Strix_aluco:4.2,Asio_otus:4.1):4.1,Athene_noctua:7.3):6.3,Tyto_alba:13.5);", > file = "ex1.tre", sep = "\n")> > cat("owls(((Strix_aluco:1.2,Asio_otus:4.5):3.1,Athene_noctua:7.3):6.3,Tyto_alba:13.5);", > file = "ex2.tre", sep = "\n")> > cat("owls(((Strix_aluco:3.2,Asio_otus:4.7):8.1,Athene_noctua:7.3):6.3,Tyto_alba:13.5);", > file = "ex3.tre", sep = "\n")> tree1 <- read.tree("ex1.tre")> tree2 <- > read.tree("ex2.tre")> tree3 <- read.tree("ex3.tre")> trees <- c(tree1, tree2, > tree3)> trees_con <- consensus(trees)> trees_con Phylogenetic tree with 4 tips and 3 internal nodes. Tip labels:[1] "Strix_aluco" "Asio_otus" "Athene_noctua" "Tyto_alba" Rooted; no branch lengths.
