Hi,

I want to generate geom_taxalink arcs between many (potentially hundreds) of taxa in my trees. However, it seems like you need to script each one individually e.g. + geom_taxalink(A,B,curvature=-0.5). Is there way to feed a data frame or multiple lists to this part of the command? Maybe a 'for' loop?

Many thanks,

Mat

Never mind, I figured out how to add them using a loop (below if anyone is interested):

mytree <- treedata

for(row in c(1:nrow(linklist))){

mytree <- mytree + geom_taxalink(linklist$taxa1[row],linklist$taxa2[row],color='red')

}

mytree
