single-marker-phylogeny > view on the tree

[elizabethmcd]

Original single-marker-phylogeny workflow outputs sequences of hits for a given single marker and a phylogeny of that marker. Oftentimes want to view the presence/absence of a marker on a complete set of genomes (TOL, reconstructed genomes from an environment) and overlay onto it. Can do in iTOL but the metadata prep is more convoluted and adding metadata is only free if you do it all at once. EMPRESS is command-line and is easier to format the metadata tables directly from outputs. Dependencies don't have to require EMPRESS but the metadata formatted can include that to pass to it
