This is mostly the function as.phylo.formula from the ape package but modified so that interior nodes get labeled. Note: assumes that there are NOT single quotes around the labels.

Arguments

x

a right-side formula describing the taxonomic relationship: ~C1/C2/.../Cn.

data

the data.frame where to look for the variables (default to user's workspace).

...

further arguments to be passed from other methods.
