By #phytools user request... ancestral state estimation of a discrete trait when some nodes are known: blog.phytools.org/2025/09/ancest….

Cool figure made with the help of #phytools in "Evolution of thumbnails across Rodentia" by @rafaelamissagia et al. in @ScienceMagazine. I especially appreciate that the authors acknowledged using phytools for the plots, something that's often overlooked! doi.org/10.1126/scienc…

I'm not sure how, but I almost completely forgot I did this in #phytools even though it was only, like, two weeks ago: "A Pagel '94 type correlation model with one binary trait and one continuous character" using the discretized diffusion approximation (blog.phytools.org/2025/07/a-page…).

A Pagel '94 type correlational model for one binary & a second continuous trait in #phytools: blog.phytools.org/2025/07/a-page….

Plotting the x-axis backwards in #phytools phenogram: blog.phytools.org/2025/07/how-to…. (It's easy.)

New in #phytools! Semi-threshold trait evolution model using fitsemiThresh  Analyzes traits based on hidden continuous properties with discretized diffusion approximation 📊

Another great figure created with the assistance of #Rstats #phytools, this one by @juanolvido89 et al. "Look past the cooperative eye hypothesis: reconsidering the evolution of human eye appearance." Check out the article here: doi.org/10.1111/brv.70….

Love this beautiful figure made with the help of #Rstats #phytools in "Nest location and architecture as primary drivers of variation in UV reflectance in avian eggs" by @MEmendiwelso, @cdanielcadena, & @dOcampo10. Check it out here: doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2….
