The ggtree package should not be viewed solely as a standalone software. While it is useful for viewing, annotating and manipulating phylogenetic trees, it is also an infrastructure that enables evolutionary evidences that inferred by commonly used software packages in the field to be used in R. For instance, dN/dS values or ancestral sequences inferred by CODEML1, clade support values (posterior) inferred by BEAST2 and short read placement by EPA3 and pplacer4. These evolutionary evidences are not only used in annotating phylogenetic tree in ggtree but can also be further analyzed in R.
Most of the tree viewer software (including R packages) focus on Newick and Nexus file formats, while there are file formats from different evolution analysis software that contain supporting evidences within the file that are ready for annotating a phylogenetic tree. The ggtree package define several parser functions and S4 classes to store statistical evidences inferred by commonly used software packages. It supports several file formats, including:
ape)ape)and software output from:
The ggtree package implement several parser functions, including:
read.beast for parsing output of BEASEread.codeml for parsing output of CODEML (rst and mlc files)read.codeml_mlc for parsing mlc file (output of CODEML)read.hyphy for parsing output of HYPHYread.jplace for parsing jplace file including output from EPA and pplacerread.nhx for parsing NHX file including output from PHYLODOG and RevBayesread.paml_rst for parsing rst file (output of BASEML and CODEML)read.r8s for parsing output of r8sread.raxml for parsing output of RAxMLCorrespondingly, ggtree defines several S4 classes to store evolutionary evidences inferred by these software packages, including:
apeBootstrap for bootstrap analysis of ape::boot.phylo()10, output of apeBoot() defined in ggtreebeast for storing output of read.beast()codeml for storing output of read.codeml()codeml_mlc for storing output of read.codeml_mlc()hyphy for storing output of read.hyphy()jplace for storing output of read.jplace()nhx for storing output of read.nhx()paml_rst for rst file obtained by PAML, including BASEML and CODEML.phangorn for storing ancestral sequences inferred by R package phangorn11, output of phyPML() defined in ggtreer8s for storing output of read.r8s()raxml for storing output of read.raxml()The jplace class is also designed to store user specified annotation data.
Here is an overview of these S4 classes:
In addition, ggtree also supports phylo, multiPhylo (defined by ape10), phylo4, phylo4d (defined by phylobase) obkData (defined in OutbreakTools) and phyloseq (defined in phyloseq).
In ggtree, tree objects can be merged and evidences inferred from different phylogenetic analyses can be combined or compared and visualized.
Viewing a phylogenetic tree in ggtree is easy by using the command ggtree(tree_object) and annotating a phylogenetic tree is simple by adding graphic layers using the grammar of graphics.
For each class, we defined get.fields method to get the annotation features that available in the object that can be used to annotate a phylogenetic tree directly in ggtree. A get.tree method can be used to convert tree object to phylo (or multiPhylo for r8s) object that are widely supported by other R packages.
The groupOTU method is used for clustering related OTUs (from tips to their most recent common ancestor). Related OTUs are not necessarily within a clade, they can be distantly related. groupOTU works fine for monophyletic (clade), polyphyletic and paraphyletic, while groupClade only works for clade (monophyletic). These methods are useful for clustering related OTUs or clades.
The fortify method is used to convert tree object to a data.frame which is familiar by R users and easy to manipulate. The output data.frame contains tree information and all evolutionary evidences (if available, e.g. dN/dS in codeml object).
Detail descriptions of slots defined in each class are documented in class man pages. Users can use class?className (e.g. class?beast) to access man page of a class.

## 'length_0.95_HPD', 'length_median', 'length_range', 'posterior', 'rate',
## 'rate_0.95_HPD', 'rate_median', 'rate_range'.
Since % is not a valid character in names, all the feature names that contain x% will convert to 0.x. For example, length_95%_HPD will be changed to length_0.95_HPD.
The get.fields method return all available features that can be used for annotation.
get.fields(beast)
## [1] "height" "height_0.95_HPD" "height_median"
## [4] "height_range" "length" "length_0.95_HPD"
## [7] "length_median" "length_range" "posterior"
## [10] "rate" "rate_0.95_HPD" "rate_median"
## [13] "rate_range"
Users can use ggtree(beast) to visualize the tree and add layer to annotate it.
ggtree(beast, ndigits=2, branch.length = 'none') + geom_text(aes(x=branch, label=length_0.95_HPD), vjust=-.5, color='firebrick')
ggtree provides geom_range layer to display uncertainty of branch length.
ggtree(beast) + geom_range(range='length_0.95_HPD', color='red', alpha=.6, size=2)
In FigTree, only heigh_0.95_HPD is meaningful since the branch is scaled by height. In ggtree we can display HPD of rate, height or other variable if available since ggtree can rescale a tree using rescale_tree function or by specifing branch.length in ggtree function.
ggtree(beast, branch.length = 'rate') + geom_range(range='rate_0.95_HPD', color='red', alpha=.6, size=2)
With ggtree, evolutionary evidences inferred by commonly used software packages (BEAST in this example) can be easily transformed to a tidy data.frame by fortify method.

rst fileThe read.paml_rst function can parse rst file from BASEML and CODEML. The only difference is the space in the sequences. For BASEML, each ten bases are separated by one space, while for CODEML, each three bases (triplet) are separated by one space.

We can find that these two figures have different evolution distances and subsitutions inferred by BASEML and CODEML are slightly different.
The mlc file output by CODEML contains dN/dS estimation.

Please aware that / and * are not valid characters in names, they were changed to _vs_ and _x_ respectively.
So dN_vs_dS is dN/dS, N_x_dN is N*dN, and S_x_dS is S*dS.
ggtree(mlc) + geom_text(aes(x=branch, label=dN_vs_dS), color='blue', vjust=-.2)
The paramter branch.length can be one of available annotations:
get.fields(mlc)
## [1] "t" "N" "S" "dN_vs_dS" "dN" "dS"
## [7] "N_x_dN" "S_x_dS"
For example, if we set branch.length to dN_vs_dS, the tree view will be re-scaled based on \(\omega\) (dN/dS).
ggtree(mlc, branch.length = "dN_vs_dS", aes(color=dN_vs_dS)) +
scale_color_continuous(name='dN/dS', limits=c(0, 1.5),
oob=scales::squish, low="darkgreen", high="red")+
theme_tree2(legend.position=c(.9, .5))
We can also plot the dN or dS tree and others. More examples (including evidences inferred by BEAST) can be found in the Tree Annotation vignette.
CODEML output: rst and mlc filesWe annotate the tree with information presented in rst and mlc file separately as demonstrated in previous sessions.
We can also use both of them which is highly recommended.

This is only a tiny sample file. In reality, EPA and PPLACER may place thousands of short reads on a reference tree.
We may, for example, count the number of placement and annotate this information in the tree.
In ggtree, tree objects can be merged and evidences inferred from different phylogenetic analyses can be combined or compared and visualized.
User can use the command like:
tree <- merge_tree(tree_object_1, tree_object_2)
## it's chainable, and serveral tree objects can be merged into one tree object
tree <- merge_tree(tree_object_1, tree_object_2) %>% merge_tree(tree_object_3) %>% merge_tree(tree_object_4)
Here we use a tree analyzed by BEAST and CodeML and merge them into one.

jplace file formatThe jplace file format was defined by Masten12 for phylogenetic placements. We employed this file format to store phylogenetic tree and user specified annotation data. Suppose we have a tree, and the associated data as shown below:
tree <- system.file("extdata", "pa.nwk", package="ggtree")
data <- read.csv(system.file("extdata", "pa_subs.csv", package="ggtree"), stringsAsFactor=FALSE)
print(tree)

The data contains amino acid substitutions from parent node to child node and GC contents of each node. We can annotate the tree as demonstrated in User specified annotation session of Tree Annotation vignette.
ggtree provides a function, write.jplace, to combine a tree and an associated data and store them to a single jplace file.
outfile <- tempfile()
write.jplace(tree, data, outfile)
The read.jplace function was designed to read the jplace file and store the information to a jplace object.
jp <- read.jplace(outfile)
print(jp)
## 'jplace' S4 object that stored information of
## '/tmp/Rtmpl2ibsg/file6f89a9ad2d'.

##
## with the following features availables:

Now we know the jp object that stores the tree and the associated amino acid substitution and GC content information, we can view the tree and display the associated annotation data on it directly by ggtree.
