I want to model the spatial distribution of the ecological niche of cowpea, I 
have a set of data (environmental variables and bioclimatic) and data of 
presence of the varieties of cowpea.I wanted to use the software Maxent for do 
it; But I understood through the literature that the R software is now widely 
used. It is with this in mind that I would like to focus on this. By the way, I 
need help to understand the procedures for doing this modeling using R. 1. I 
would like to do a Shapiro-Wilks normality test, the null hypothesis of which 
is to assert that The data follow a normal distribution and where the 
alternative hypothesis implies an asymmetric or abnormal distribution, makes it 
possible to conclude that the observations are of very asymmetric distribution. 
2. I would like to do a logarithmic transformation of the response data is 
therefore performed in order to reduce the asymmetry of the data and thus 
improve the power of the statistical tests.3. I would like to do a canonical 
redundancy analysis on all the data tables. 4. I would like to make a 
bidirectional progressive selection in order to select the relevant variables 
according to Akaike's information criterion or AIC and Of the 
representativeness (p-value) .5. I would like to make a progressive selection 
by adding, according to the adjusted R-square, in order to compare the result 
of the selection 6. Finally, the procedures to be followed to model the 
distribution of the varieties.
