Dear morphometricians 

I have recently uploaded the new version 1.06c of MorphoJ to the web page: 
http://www.flywings.org.uk/MorphoJ_page.htm 


This release contains an addition to the procedure for principal component 
analysis. The output now contains some integration statistics in addition 
to the standard PCA outputs (variance of eigenvalues, variance of 
eigenvalues scaled by the total variance, and scaled to an interval between 
0 and 1). 

For an example of the use of this kind of integration statistics, see 
Gómez, J. M., F. Perfectti, and C. P. Klingenberg. 2014. The role of 
pollinators in the evolution of corolla shape integration in a 
pollination-generalist plant clade. Philosophical Transactions of the Royal 
Society of London B Biological Sciences 369:20130257.

There are also a few bug fixes. The most noticeable concered importing data 
from TPS files. Importing data from TPS files containing records starting 
with LM=0 (no landmarks for an object) produced an erroneous record in the 
dataset. The new version of MorphoJ is issuing an error message and aborts 
the data import in this situation. Thanks to the participants of the Plant 
Morphometrics workshop in Els Hostalets de Pierola for alerting me to this 
bug. 


Best wishes, 
Chris
