Phylogenetic
Plot a dendrogram for a set of genome nucleotide sequences
Contributed by:
Daniel Lichtblau
ResourceFunction["PhylogeneticTreePlot"][seqs,slabels] gives a dendrogram plot that groups the genetic sequences seqs and labels them with slabels. |
Details and Options
ResourceFunction["PhylogeneticTreePlot"] uses an alignment-free method to compare pairs of sequences.
Input sequences should be strings comprised of the standard nucleotide letters {A,C,G,T}. Lowercase letters are also allowed. The character U is allowed and is replaced by T. All other characters, such as N, are removed.
ResourceFunction["PhylogeneticTreePlot"] uses Dendrogram and accepts all options for that function.
Most default option settings agree with those of Dendrogram.
As with Dendrogram, the DistanceFunction defaults to Automatic which, for purposes of this function, is EuclideanDistance.
ResourceFunction["PhylogeneticTreePlot"] creates the dendrogram from vectors that are derived via dimensional reductions of the input genetic sequences.
Each sequence is first converted to an image using the Frequency Chaos Game Representation (FCGR).
FCGR images are reduced in dimension using a Fourier Cosine Transform (FCT). A further dimensional reduction is done using the Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) on vectors comprised of the flattened FCT matrices.
An explanation may be found in the articles noted in the Related Links and Source Metadata sections.
The dimensional reduction described above has certain parameters that in principle might be changed. ResourceFunction["PhylogeneticTreePlot"] uses a fixed set of values for these that has been seen to perform fairly well in practice.
In order to produce a reasonable grouping, ResourceFunction["PhylogeneticTreePlot"] requires moderately long genetic sequences containing at least a few thousand nucleotides.
The SVD step of the dimension reduction, when applied to vectors that came from a set of very similar genome sequences, will tend to give a result where the reduced vectors are dominated by a large first value that is approximately equal across the set. This tends to distort the distances between genomes. The option "IgnoreOutlier" (default: Automatic) is provided to address this. The automatic behavior is to remove the first components whenever the largest singular value is at least ten times the size of the next largest.

Basic Examples (4)
Obtain genes for a type of breast cancer from the entity store:
| In[1]:= | ![InputForm[
brca2 = SemanticInterpretation["brca2 gene", AmbiguityFunction -> All]]](https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/resourcesystem/images/562/562d05d8-fc55-4fe9-beb8-4e6746b1f1da/4-0-0/404d9be3fc60b428.png){kind=small} |
| Out[361]= |  |
| In[362]:= | ![bcGenes = brca2[[1]]](https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/resourcesystem/images/562/562d05d8-fc55-4fe9-beb8-4e6746b1f1da/4-0-0/37a5e38c42ac6638.png){kind=small} |
| Out[362]= |  |
Obtain the nucleotide sequences and species names:
| In[363]:= | ![refseqs = Through[bcGenes["ReferenceSequence"]];
species = Through[bcGenes["Species"]]](https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/resourcesystem/images/562/562d05d8-fc55-4fe9-beb8-4e6746b1f1da/4-0-0/72375e882d47ffd8.png){kind=small} |
| Out[363]= |  |
Plot the phylogenetic tree derived from these genes:
| In[364]:= | ![ResourceFunction["PhylogeneticTreePlot"][refseqs, species]](https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/resourcesystem/images/562/562d05d8-fc55-4fe9-beb8-4e6746b1f1da/4-0-0/3641b3050f39ba9f.png){kind=small} |
| Out[364]= |  |
One can force PhylogeneticTreePlot to ignore the largest singular value in the dimension-reduction:
| In[365]:= | ![ResourceFunction["PhylogeneticTreePlot"][refseqs, species, "IgnoreOutlier" -> True]](https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/resourcesystem/images/562/562d05d8-fc55-4fe9-beb8-4e6746b1f1da/4-0-0/74fb3cde84a5e289.png){kind=small} |
| Out[365]= |  |

SARS-CoV-2 (5)
We now apply this to samples of the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, which is the virus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic. For purposes of getting better comparisons, we remove trailing A nucleotides (their presence or absence seems to be a vagary of the sequencing protocols). We also restrict to a tighter size range that still contains most of the fully sequenced samples. For purposes of visualization we will color the labels by location and date of sample collection.
Obtain data from the Wolfram Data Repository:
| In[372]:= | ![fullGenes = ResourceData["Genetic Sequences for the SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus"][
Select[StringContainsQ[#GenBankTitle, "complete genome"] &], {"Sequence", "GeographicLocation", "CollectionDate"}];
geneLists = Normal[fullGenes];](https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/resourcesystem/images/562/562d05d8-fc55-4fe9-beb8-4e6746b1f1da/4-0-0/054075fd09d2a650.png) |
Remove trailing A nucleotides and retain only a narrow size range:
| In[373]:= | ![dropTrailingA[seq_] := StringReplace[seq, StartOfString ~~ Shortest[a__] ~~ ("A" ..) ~~ EndOfString :> a];
normalGL = Map[Values, geneLists];
midsize = Select[normalGL, 29825 <= StringLength[dropTrailingA[#[[1]]]] <= 29885 &];
{fullseqs0, places, dates} = Transpose[midsize];
fullseqs = Map[dropTrailingA, fullseqs0];](https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/resourcesystem/images/562/562d05d8-fc55-4fe9-beb8-4e6746b1f1da/4-0-0/0fdfebf86636f981.png) |
Create labels colored both by collection locations and dates:
| In[374]:= | ![dates1 = Map[First, dates];
ndates1 = Map[(#[[1]] - 2019)*365 + #[[2]]*30.4 + If[Length[#] == 3, #[[3]], 15] &, dates1];
ndates = Rescale[ndates1];
colorDateLabels = Thread[Style[dates1, Map[Darker[Hue[#]] &, ndates + .05]]];
placeNames = Map[If[Head[#] === Entity, #[[2]], Head[#]] &, places];
placeSet = Union[placeNames];
nplaces = Length[placeSet];
crange = Range[nplaces]/(nplaces + 1);
biggest = Ordering[
Map[Length, Map[ColorData[#, "ColorList"] &, ColorData["Indexed"]]], -1];
placeColors = Take[ColorData[ColorData["Indexed"][[biggest[[1]]]], "ColorList"], UpTo[nplaces]];
colorPlaceRule = Thread[placeSet -> placeColors];
colorPlaceLabels = Thread[Style[placeNames, placeNames /. colorPlaceRule]];
colorPlaceDateLabels = Thread[{colorPlaceLabels, colorDateLabels}];](https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/resourcesystem/images/562/562d05d8-fc55-4fe9-beb8-4e6746b1f1da/4-0-0/64809798f8d5c417.png) |

This example illustrates the importance of clipping off the first singular value in the dimension reduction, in cases where it is much larger than the next one. In effect one component will dominate the rest, in a way that will tend to make the distances less meaningful. We show this now by forcing the large value to be retained. The result is a tree that is unbalanced in terms of branch lengths:

"PhylogeneticTreePlot"][fullseqs, colorPlaceDateLabels, "IgnoreOutlier" -> False, AspectRatio -> 5, ImageSize -> 750]](https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/resourcesystem/images/562/562d05d8-fc55-4fe9-beb8-4e6746b1f1da/4-0-0/3d23e43bb1e592f6.png){kind=small} |

Possible Issues (3)
The implementation was changed in April 2020 to use the System` context Dendrogram instead of HierarchicalClustering`DendrogramPlot. This necessitated small changes to the argument structure and also means there are some changes in the functional behavior. For example, Dendrogram does not properly handle CosineDistance as a DistanceFunction setting. We give the prior implementation here as a convenience for those who might have preferred it:
| In[377]:= | ![Options[OldPhylogeneticTreePlot] = Join[Options[
HierarchicalClustering`DendrogramPlot], {AspectRatio -> 1.2, ImageSize -> 600, "IgnoreOutlier" -> Automatic}] /. (HierarchicalClustering`Orientation -> aa_) :> (HierarchicalClustering`Orientation -> Left);
OldPhylogeneticTreePlot[geneseqs_, labels_, opts : OptionsPattern[]] :=
OldPhylogeneticTreePlot[geneseqs, labels, "", opts]
OldPhylogeneticTreePlot[geneseqs_, labels_, plabel_, opts : OptionsPattern[]] := With[{freq = 30, keep = 40, dim = 7},
Module[
{ftts, vecs, ratio, size, io, optsd},
{ratio, size, io} = ({AspectRatio, ImageSize, "IgnoreOutlier"} /. {opts}) /. Thread[{AspectRatio, ImageSize, "IgnoreOutlier"} -> {OptionValue[AspectRatio], OptionValue[ImageSize], OptionValue["IgnoreOutlier"]}];
Block[{$ContextPath}, Needs["HierarchicalClustering`"]];
optsd = FilterRules[{opts}, Options[HierarchicalClustering`DendrogramPlot]];

vecs = FTTsToVectors[ftts, keep, io];
