Phylepic contains tools for visualisations that are useful for genomic epidemiology of pathogens, designed for a public health setting.
You can install phylepic like so:
# CRAN release
install.packages('phylepic')
# development version
install.packages('phylepic', repos = c('https://cidmp-ph.r-universe.dev', 'https://cloud.r-project.org'))
This is an example of a very minimal phylepic chart.
library(ape)
library(phylepic)
tree <- read.tree(text = "((D:0.3,C:0.4):0.5,B:0.1,A:0.2);")
metadata <- data.frame(
ID = c("A", "B", "C", "D"),
date = as.Date(c("2024-01-10", "2024-01-12", "2024-01-21", "2024-01-23")),
country = factor(c("Australia", "Australia", NA, "New Zealand"))
)
phylepic(tree, metadata, ID, date) |> plot()
Refer to the package vignette for a more complete example.
