The Interactive Tree Of Life (https://itol.embl.de) is an online tool for the display, manipulation and annotation of phylogenetic and other trees. It is freely available and open to everyone. iTOL version 5 introduces a completely new tree display engine, together with numerous new features. For example, a new dataset type has been added (MEME motifs), while annotation options have been expanded for several existing ones. Node metadata display options have been extended and now also support non-numerical categorical values, as well as multiple values per node. Direct manual annotation is now available, providing a set of basic drawing and labeling tools, allowing users to draw shapes, labels and other features by hand directly onto the trees. Support for tree and dataset scales has been extended, providing fine control over line and label styles. Unrooted tree displays can now use the equal-daylight algorithm, proving a much greater display clarity. The user account system has been streamlined and expanded with new navigation options and currently handles >1 million trees from >70 000 individual users.
交互式生命之树(https://itol.embl.de)是一个用于展示、操作和注释系统发生树和其他树的在线工具。它是免费提供的,对所有人开放。iTOL 版本 5 引入了一个全新的树展示引擎,以及许多新功能。例如,添加了一种新的数据集类型(MEME 基序),同时扩展了几种现有数据集类型的注释选项。节点元数据显示选项也得到了扩展,现在还支持非数值分类值以及每个节点的多个值。现在可以直接进行手动注释,提供了一组基本的绘图和标注工具,使用户可以直接在树上手绘形状、标签和其他特征。扩展了树和数据集比例尺的支持,提供了对线和标签样式的精细控制。无根树显示现在可以使用等日照算法,提供了更大的显示清晰度。用户账户系统已经简化并扩展,增加了新的导航选项,目前可以处理来自超过 70000 个用户的超过 100 万棵树。
