动机：微生物群落分析是一个非常活跃的研究领域，但促进系统发育树和相关环境数据可视化的工具还没有跟上这些研究中生成的数据量的增长。TopiaryExplorer支持非常大的系统发育树的可视化，包括通过环境数据自动为分支着色等功能，树的操作和每个尖端元数据（例如分类标签）的并入。
Motivation: Microbial community profiling is a highly active area of research, but tools that facilitate visualization of phylogenetic trees and associated environmental data have not kept up with the increasing quantity of data generated in these studies.Results: TopiaryExplorer supports the visualization of very large phylogenetic trees, including features such as the automated coloring of branches by environmental data, manipulation of trees and incorporation of per-tip metadata (e.g. taxonomic labels).
