get (phytree) - Retrieve information about phylogenetic tree object

Syntax

[Value1, Value2,...] = get(Tree, 'Property1','Property2',...)
get(Tree)
V = get(Tree)

Arguments

Description

[Value1, Value2,...] = get(Tree, 'Property1','Property2',...) returns the specified properties from a phytree object (Tree).

Properties for a phytree object are listed in the following table.

get(Tree) displays all property names and their current values for a phytree object (Tree).

V = get(Tree) returns a structure where each field name is the name of a property of a phytree object (Tree) and each field contains the value of that property.

Examples

1. Read in a phylogenetic tree from a file.

   tr = phytreeread('pf00002.tree')

2. Get the names of the leaves.

   protein_names = get(tr,'LeafNames')
   
   protein_names = 
   
       'BAI2_HUMAN/917-1197'
       'BAI1_HUMAN/944-1191'
       'O00406/622-883'
        ...
