Ecology and evolutionary biology suggest that closely related species are more likely to exhibit morphological and functional similarities compared to distantly related species. Each tree species ...
THE VENN DIAGRAM ILLUSTRATES THE COMPONENTS OF VARIATION PARTITIONING WITHIN A PHYLOGENETIC GENERALIZED LINEAR MODEL (PGLM). THE LARGE OUTER CIRCLE REPRESENTS THE TOTAL VARIATION IN THE RESPONSE ...
This was obtained using the ape package and the contMap function in R, assuming Brownian motion as a model for trait evolution, and then interpolated along the branches of the tree. The color gradient ...
