Dear list,

I need to include in a superscript number (-1) in a y-axis label of a
boxplot graphic. I tried the following line:

>boxplot(five$gr13~five$Code, xlab="Species code",
ylab=substitute(paste("DGL growth (cm.yr"^{-1},")")))

It returns the following error message:

Error in "DGL growth (cm.yr"^{ : non-numeric argument to binary operator

I used the same line for the plot function in another graphic and it worked
perfectly well.

Any suggestions?
