[R-sig-phylo] Phylogenetic Canonical Correlations

2012-07-13 Thread Jonathan Mitchell
Hello all, I'm trying to perform a canonical correlations analysis that takes phylogenetic non-independence into account properly (a la what Revall 2009 did for PCA). To this effect, I've written a script to do canonical correlates in R based entirely on SVD instead of QR decomp. (because I

Hi Jon. phytools (http://cran.r-project.org/package=phytools) has a function, phyl.cca, for phylogenetic canonical correlations. It returns the coefficients scores (in the species space - so, with phylogenetic correlation), correlations, and p-values. You can also just use pic and cancor

[R-sig-phylo] phylogenetic signal on multistate discrete traits

2012-07-13 Thread Patricia Rodríguez González
Hi all, I am new to this forum and also new to phylogenetic analysis. I am trying to study phylogenetic signal on traits from plant communities following an environmental gradient. Part of my traits are continuous and for them I have used Blomberg's K. However for the multistate discrete traits
