Dear R-sig-phylo users,

I wonder if the standard errors of the theta estimates in OU models have
any biologically meaningful interpretations. For instance, could it give
some indication of plasticity in traits, or the optimal level of plasticity
in traits? Or does it simply reflect estimation uncertainty of the
phylogeny or the OU model?

Thanks a lot!
