extract all phylogenetic trees in ape format

Usage

get_trees_list(nexml)

Arguments

nexml

a representation of the nexml object from which the data is to be retrieved

Value

returns a list of lists of multiphylo trees, even if all trees are in the same trees node (and hence the outer list will be of length

  1. or if there is only a single tree (and hence the inner list will also be of length 1. This ensures a consistent return type regardless of the number of trees present in the nexml file, and also preserves any grouping of trees.
