Hi Matt, David, and Jay.
Yes, the general approach described in Ives et al. (2007; Syst. Biol.)
is implemented for different univariate tests and methods, including
model fitting, in phytools (as well as in geiger); however the
regression model of Ives et al. has not yet been implemented in
Hello David,
There is at least one package in R that incorporates intraspecific
variation within a phylogenetic context.
phytools. The method is described in:
Revell, L. J. and R. G. Reynolds. In Press. A new Bayesian method for
fitting evolutionary models to comparative data with intraspecific
David and Jay,
I am not sure if Liam and Graham's was designed for phylogenetic regression
per se. Tony Ives has done exactly this but his code is only in Matlab as
far as I understand.
An alternative would be to use RMA approach for this which Liam has created
(but note Simon Blomberg's warning
Hi all,
Sorry if this has been dealt with here before, I searched the list but
couldn't find a thread quite the same as this.
Are there methods in R for performing phylogenetic regression on
datasets with many measurements per tip. We have data from many
individuals that includes a measurement
