                          Clade

Describes a branch of the current phylogenetic tree.

Used recursively, describes the topology of a phylogenetic tree.

Both 'color' and 'width' elements should be interpreted by client code as applying to the whole clade, including all descendents, unless overwritten in-sub clades. This module doesn't automatically assign these attributes to sub-clades to achieve this cascade -- and neither should you.

(Constructor)

source code 

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

Parameters:
  • branch_length - parent branch length of this clade
  • id_source - link other elements to a clade (on the xml-level)
  • name - short string label for this clade
  • confidences - list of Confidence objects, used to indicate the support for a clade/parent branch.
  • width - branch width for this clade (including branch from parent)
  • color - color used for graphical display of this clade
  • node_id - unique identifier for the root node of this clade
  • taxonomies - list of Taxonomy objects
  • sequences - list of Sequence objects
  • events - describe such events as gene-duplications at the root node/parent branch of this clade
  • binary_characters - a BinaryCharacters object
  • distributions - list of Distribution objects
  • date - a date for the root node of this clade (type Date)
  • references - list of Reference objects
  • properties - list of Property objects
  • clades - list of sub-clades (type Clade)
  • other - list of non-phyloXML objects
Overrides: object.__init__
