Hi everyone.
I am new to this list as to the use of R for plotting phylogenies, but I am
quite used to R in general. Therefore, I am aware of how flexible and
powerful its graphics “abilities” are. Even so, I am having a very hard
time trying to root my phylogeny.
I get a MrBayes output
Thank you very much Liam, reroot solved the problem smoothly.
Sorry for taking your time with what seemed to be a rookie mistake.
Once again, thank you.

Hi Rodrigo.
resolve.root resolves the root with a branch of zero length - so when
plotted, your tree would still look like it has a basal trichotomy.
There is a function, reroot, in the phytools package that can be used to
re-root the tree along an edge. You can also investigate midpoint.root
