[R] possible bug in ape::extract.clade()

2010-07-19 Thread Dylan Beaudette
Hi,

I was recently splitting some massive phylo class objects with extract.clade() 
and noticed what appears to be a bug in how tip labels are copied from the 
full tree to the pruned tree. This possible bug was also mentioned here:

http://www.mail-archive.com/r-sig-ph...@r-project.org/msg00537.html

An example:

library(ape)
set.seed(5)
x - matrix(rnorm(100), ncol=10)

p - as.phylo(hclust(dist(x)))
p.new - extract.clade(p, 14)

par(mfcol=c(1,2), mar=c(1,1,5,1))
plot(p)
title('original')
nodelabels()

plot(p.new)
title('cut at node 14')


I have noticed that this error is present only sometimes... i.e. when I use a 
different seed for the random matrix 'x', the results are correct in some 
cases.

Any ideas?

Thanks for the very useful 'ape' package!

Cheers,
Dylan

  If you don't see any action on this in the near future I would
try re-posting to r-sig-ph...@r-project.org ...
