I have looked around for an answer for this by have not been able to find one so I have come here. I have a precomputed distance matrix from an all vs all comparison of the root mean squared deviation (RMSD) of different protein structures.

I want to draw a dendrogram from this matrix:
tree=linkage(matrix,'average')
dengrogram(tree,0)
but if I do this the y-axis distance is all wrong because it's calculating the euclidean distances in the linkage. Is there a way to draw dendrograms directly from a precomputed distance matrix?
