Hello,
I want to simulate two types of phylogenies: one normally done with, for
example, rcoal in ape; and the second type with an outgroup on a long
branch. The first is easy with rcoal.
I'm not sure how to make the second kind of tree. An example of this second
kind is a tree with say all
Hi Scott.
I'm not sure why you want to do this, but based on your description it
sounds like you could just generate two separate trees and then paste
them together across a deep basal split.
The following is an example of doing this, although I'm sure you could
also come up with your own
Hi Liam, Great, thanks so much.
The point of this exercise is to figure out to what extent certain tree
characteristics are influencing phylogenetic meta-analysis output. We think
that deep basal splits in these types of trees (e.g., mostly animals with a
plant species as an outgroup) may be
