Hi Gustavo, GLS returns the estimated slope and its uncertainty, you can then compute a t-value where your null-hypothesis is "slope=1", and from that t-value get a p-value. Cheers, Xavier 2014-08-20 21:30 GMT+02:00 Gustavo Paterno : > Dear all, > I am working with flower allometry and want to

[R-sig-phylo] How to test if the slope is different from 1 in PGLS?

2014-08-20 Thread Gustavo Paterno
Dear all, I am working with flower allometry and want to use PGLS to analyse how the male and female biomass of the flower scale with total flower biomass. So simple linear regressions, but log-trasformed. my model is: mod.male <- pgls(male~total, data=flower.data,lambda="ML") Besides calculatin
