Visualisation of the birth-death algorithm from treats

Step 11: Repeating steps 1, 2, 3 and 4 again. Until a stop.rule condition is triggered (see step 11 - stop). Here let say the stopping rule is reaching a certain time limit. The selected lineage is D (step 1) and the branch length is increased by t3 (step 3). This makes the tree reach the stop rule. Otherwise it would have continued to step 3 and 4 as previously.
