Agus,
Whether the background appears transparent or not depends on the device
where you plot the tree. On Linux, the default device (X11) is transparent:
par(bg)
[1] transparent
When plotting in a file, the default depends on the file format: pdf()
has transparent background, but png()
Many thanks Marcio and Emmanuel!
That solved my problems to plot the tree.

Dear list,
Im trying to plot a coloured tree with transparent background, to do that,
im using the following script:
require(ape)
require(geiger)
tree - read.tree(text=
Calyptommatus leiolepis:0.0168, Calyptommatus nicterus:0.0099):0.0242
,Calyptommatus sinebrachiatus:0.038):0.0724
Hi Agustin,
The problem seems to be the space between the genus and the species
names. Try this:
require(ape)
require(geiger)
tree-read.tree(text=
Calyptommatus_leiolepis:0.0168, Calyptommatus_nicterus:0.0099):0.0242
,Calyptommatus_sinebrachiatus:0.038):0.0724
