Details

This function uses plot.phylo to generate coordinates and plot the tree, but plots the 'maps' element of phytools' simmap format. This provides much of the functionality of plot.phylo from the ape package. Currently, only types 'phylogram', 'unrooted', 'radial', and 'cladogram' are allowed. Phylogenies must have branch lengths.
