Flowering plant cladogram

A cladogram emphasizes the order of branching rather than evolutionary distance. This example uses representative flowering plant groups to show a compact topology, with colored clade labels for monocots and eudicots. It is appropriate for course notes and presentations where the main point is relationship structure. A data-backed analysis should use a Newick tree exported from a phylogenetic workflow and retain its source metadata. Before using the layout in a build or document, compare every label with the source requirements and update the drawing when parts, conditions, or materials change. The example is deliberately small so the essential relationships remain readable, easy to review with collaborators, and ready to extend with the details required for the actual project.
