Hi Everyone.
I want to run PGLS on a Bayesian consensus tree that has multiple
polytomies.
What's current opinion on the best way to handle the polytomies?
There are several solutions I have come across looking at previous posts,
papers, ect.
1) Run PGLS with polytomies and manipulate degrees
Hi Brian.
The issue isn't polytomies, per se, but phylogenetic uncertainty.
Actually, arbitrarily resolving polytomies with branches of zero length
will not affect your fitted regression model at all - so there is no
point in resolving polytomies randomly many times or any such thing.
