In this video I show you how you can edit and modify your phylogenetic tree using the program FigTree to make it nicer visually, easier to read, and more intuitive to understand. I use the same tree file as in my "Interpreting phylogenetics trees" video. "Interpreting phylogenetics trees": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzxS0m-RA6s&t=1221s I post the link to the paper below, as well as a great article on colugos in WIRED. In case you would like to make the same tree I posted all files I used in my GitHub repository for you to download. WIRED article on colugos: https://www.wired.com/2014/11/absurd-... Janecka et al. 2008 paper on cryptic diversity in colugos: https://www.cell.com/current-biology/... Files in GitHub repository: https://github.com/janeckaj/sequence-... ColugoMtDNA_information_on_alignment.docx (description of the sequence file) ColugoMtDNAnoHSAv2.fas (sequence alignment) ColugoMtDNAnoHSAv2.mtsx (MEGA tree session) ColugoMtDNAnoHSAv2_ML_BS.nwk (tree in newick format) ColugoMtDNAnoHSAv2_ML_BS.png (picture of tree)
