Subject: correction of phylogenetic effects for comparing allometric
patterns

Dear morphometricians,
I am comparing allometric vectors among eight closely-related fish species.
However, I would like to correct the data to remove phylogenetic effects
(e.g. using standard comparative methods).
Has anyone already done a multivariate comparisons of allometries,
taking phylogeny into account?
If so, could you give me information about your methods?
Could you suggest me some relevant papers about this topic?
Many thanks in advance!
All the best,
Bruno
