resolvePolytomies - Resolve polytomies to have the minimum number of single timepoint clades

Description

Resolve polytomies to have the minimum number of single timepoint clades

Usage

resolvePolytomies(
phy,
clone,
minlength = 0.001,
time = "time",
sequence = "sequence_id",
germline = "Germline",
verbose = FALSE
)

Arguments

phy
Tree object
clone
airrClone data object corresponding to phy
minlength
Branch lengths to collapse in trees
time
Column name holding numeric time information
sequence
Column name holding sequence ID
germline
Germline sequence name
verbose
Print lots of rubbish while running?

Value

A phylo tree object in which polytomies are resolved to have the minimum number of single timepoint clades.

Details

Iteratively identifies polytomies (clusters of < minlength branches), prunes each descendant branch, combines clades with the same timepoint before grouping them back together. Checks to make sure that the divergence of each tip is the same after resolution.
