Paloverde: an OpenGL 3-D phylogeny browser.

@article{citeulike:524240, abstract = {SUMMARY: Paloverde is a new program designed to help visualize the phylogenetic structure of moderately large trees--trees on the scale of 100-2500 leaf nodes. The program embeds the user in an interactive virtual 3-D world in which a large tree presented in various layouts can be manipulated through a mouse interface. The program implements radial 2-D layouts, and true 3-D spiral, conical, and hemispherical (i.e., truly "tree"-like) layouts. Subclades can be defined in the input file (using standard node-based definitions) and displayed collapsed as new leaf nodes, or left intact but annotated with names around the periphery of the tree. A search tool lets the user zoom to any selected leaf node. Paloverde is an open source project written in ANSI C using the OpenGL library for 3-D visualization.
