Phylogenetic Tree
PhylogeneticTree draws "evolutionary tree" diagrams for representing the evolutionary history of a group of organisms. PhylogeneticTree focuses on the standard cladogram, skewed right, showing branches and nodes of the tree spreading from lower left, and with the taxon names (organism, or organism group names) arrayed across the top in the leaf positions. The program is primarily designed for web presentation of known cladograms. It has its own simple data design treating the cladogram as having a given number of rows, which lie vertically between levels of the nodes, and columns, which are the lateral internode spacings. Input includes a few settings for the layout of the diagram and the main data, which includes two data series in CSV format: one for the character and character descriptions and the other for the node descriptions. Node descriptions require the user to draw an existing cladogram on graph paper to gather data for row and column position of the nodes. Once you have learned the data format, specification of node data is straightforward.
