An extensive and rapidly growing collection of richly annotated phylogenetics data is now available in the NeXML format. NeXML relies on state-of-the-art data exchange technology to provide a format that can be both validated and extended, providing a data quality assurance and adaptability to the future that is lacking in other formats. See Vos et al 2012 for further details on the NeXML format.

Release Notes

  • Fixes various (previously broken) aspects of handling polymorphic
    and uncertain states for discrete (non-molecular) and continuous
    characters, including obtaining a character matrix (#174), ensuring
    proper column types (#188), and serializing to NeXML (#192).
  • Adds the optional ability to, in addition to the character matrix,
    obtain a concordantly formatted matrix of state types (standard,
    polymorphic, uncertain).
  • Fixes loss of certain literal-valued metadata when serializing to
    NeXML. #193
  • Drops package phylobase as dependency. (Also removes circular
    dependency chain, because phylobase depends on RNeXML.)
