Divide tasks among team members via the task panel and track progress. Use smart notifications to stay on top of changes and updates effortlessly.
- Use full version history:
Use full version history to manage changes made by each member and to revert back if needed.
- Visualize the tree:
Visualize the tree in different perspectives to highlight features such as geographic distribution, ecological traits, or genetic traits. Include additional information to each element via the notes and data panels. Attach docs, links, references, images and more.
- Publish or share:
Download as a PDF, PNG, SVG or JPEG or get an embed link via the embed panel accessible through ‘share’. To share the workspace, simply add the team members’ emails and invite them to collaborate.
Create a Phylogenetic TreeHow to Make a Phylogenetic Tree with Your Team?
Define the scope and research question
Discuss what the phylogenetic tree should answer and decide which organisms will be included. Use a shared workspace to brainstorm, sketch, and assign roles.
Gather data
Collect DNA or protein sequences and morphological characters. Organize them using tables and notes.
Align sequences
Align DNA or protein sequences to identify matches and mismatches. Bring all data into the shared workspace for comparison.
Build the tree
Use a template or draw from scratch. Label branches with taxonomic names and connect them with intelligent diagramming tools. Add images if needed.
Evaluate and refine the tree
Compare with existing trees and refine by adding more data or adjusting models.
Cite and acknowledge
As the final touch, properly cite any data or work that was used when creating the tree. Make sure to acknowledge the contributions of each team member.
