Dear all,

I am running a redundancy analysis in vegan and I am using ordistep to
perform a forward selection of variables in my model. I'm following Borcard
et al. (2011) for this. I got stuck in one of the steps and couldn't find
out why.

> RDA.all <- rda(main ~ ., data=second)
> RDA.all
Call: rda(formula = main ~ MeanAsp + SDAsp + MenaSlo + SDSlo + Urban +
Treelines + TreeGroups +
SolTress + IntermGrass + TallGrass + Highways + Canals + DistDCA +
MeanTrackDens + SDTrackDens +
MeanMagnetism, data = second)

               Inertia Proportion Rank
Total         0.005999   1.000000
Constrained   0.005999   1.000000    9
Unconstrained 0.000000   0.000000    0
Inertia is variance
Some constraints were aliased because they were collinear (redundant)

Eigenvalues for constrained axes:
     RDA1      RDA2      RDA3      RDA4      RDA5      RDA6      RDA7
 RDA8      RDA9
4.421e-03 1.406e-03 8.930e-05 5.354e-05 1.413e-05 8.836e-06 4.612e-06
1.324e-06 3.500e-07

# And here's the problem,

> step.forward < - ordistep(rda(main ~ 1, data=second),
scope=formula(RDA.all), direction="forward", pstep=1000)
Error: object 'step.forward' not found

I hope it's a syntaxis ommition or error. Any clue?

Thanks a lot,

Carolina
