Two Column Color Maps

Each of the examples for the two column color map will add color annotations to the following tree:

(s1,(s2,(s3,(s4,(s5,(s6,s7))))));

The newick file is available for download here.

In its simplest form, the color map has two columns name and color. The name refers to the label name of a leaf of the tree. The color can be specified as hex codes (e.g., #00FF00 for green) or as the name of a color. For a complete list of colors available to use in the color map file, see this page.

#Name Color
s1 red
s2 blue

The color map file is available for download here.

In the above color map, the labels and branches of the sequences named "s1" and "s2" would be matched. However, whether label only, branches only, or both labels and branches are colored depends on the command line options passed in to the Iroki program.

Note: See here for more details on all available command line options.
