Is there a tool for creating publication quallity phylogenetic tree with metadata associated with each leaf

I have generated a collapsed phylogenetic tree of 122 orthologs across 34 samples and now want to present the tree with metadata about the original genome such as sequence quality metrics, short of putting a table next to it in PowerPoint is there a tool that would allow me to attach such metadata to each leaf in the tree?

Unfortunately iTOL does not allow you to annotate with numerical values I believe

Can you somehow convert the numerical to character/factorial variables, by assigning a small letter to the number?

What would I then do with the character representation of the number?

A complete table maybe not but you can add some text, look at their gallery.

Hi,

iTOL allows you to annotate a phylogenetic tree, though I'm not sure if it does exactly what you want.

You have also Evolview.

Search first among the examples to see if it can do what you want before trying it yourself.
