Dear list, I am tracing evolution of a binary trait on a phylogeny with 1500 tips. Since the trait is labile and scattered across the phylogeny (Fritz Purvis D= 0.45), I find it difficult to visually count the number of gains/origin of the trait in ancestral state reconstruction. Is there any function to estimate the number of independent gains and the respective node number if possible? I am currently mapping the trait using *simmap *function from *phytools*.
Thanks in advance, Gopal M [[alternative HTML version deleted]] _______________________________________________ R-sig-phylo mailing list - R-sig-phylo@r-project.org https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-phylo Searchable archive at http://www.mail-archive.com/r-sig-phylo@r-project.org/
