I don't know much, so maybe it's already out there? But as far as I understand, there's no tree+data object in ape, for example, so the best users can do is to take their phylo4d object, and export the phylo tree plus the data frame. Of course it's in the proper order and with appropriate labels, but being able to use it more directly would be better.</font></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; min-height: 14px; "><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><font face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 12.0px Helvetica">The subsetting function with the [ was a little confusing at first.
