[MORPHMET] Geometric Morphometric variables used as traits

2017-11-06 Thread Jonathan Miller
Dear all, I´d like to ask you if any of you could suggest me some geometric morfometric variables that could be used as traits for a phylogenetic signal test. Up to now I have taken only the PC1 and PC2 from a PCA after doing the nomal treatment to the landmarks sets... After that I also used

Hi Jonathan, there is a multivariate estimate for phylogenetic signal, with the corresponding significance testing, were you can test for phylogenetic signal in shape as a multidimensional trait. The method is described in Adams, D.C. 2014. A generalized K statistic for estimating phylogenetic sig
