Matt,
Matt Helmus and I have worked out
Hi,
I am not sure I understand the problem correctly. But I assume that your
friend gets a matrix of correlation between the abundances. So
essentially he has correlation coefficients for all the pairwise
comparisons between the species (or taxa). To test for a phylogenetic
signature you
Matt,
Matt Helmus and I have worked out how to do things like this with binary
(presence-absence) data, which is harder (statistically and numerically) than
continuous data.
