+TreeGraph (2): A feature rich and easy to use phylogenetic tree editor
+
+TreeGraph (2) is a is graphical editor for phylogenetic trees, which
+allows to apply various of graphical formats and edit operations and
+supports several (visible or invisible) annotations attached to nodes
+or branches. Data can be imported from many tree formats, tables and
+BayesTraits output.
+
+A key feature is the interactive comparison and combination of
+alternative topologies from different analyses.
+
+Key features
+- Read trees in Newick, Nexus format (including annotations in hot
+ comments), NeXML or PhyloXML
+- Import annotations from text files or combine information from
+ different phylogenetic analyses
+- An unlimited number of numerical or textual annotations on every
+ branch
+- Export trees to various vector and (anti-aliased) pixel graphic
+ formats (e.g. PDF, SVG, EMF or PNG)
+- Many global and element specific formats like line width or color
+ and text formats
+- Versatile editing and formatting options, such as automatically
+ setting branch widths or colors according to the value of any
+ attached data
+- Editing operations like rerooting, ladderizing or moving and
+ collapsing nodes or copying or manually creating whole clades
+- Generate commands and import data for ancestral state reconstruction
