Calculation of Evolvability Parameters

v2.0.1 · Jun 5, 2025 · GPL (>= 2)

Description

Provides tools for calculating evolvability parameters from estimated G-matrices as defined in Hansen and Houle (2008) <doi:10.1111/j.1420-9101.2008.01573.x> and fits phylogenetic comparative models that link the rate of evolution of a trait to the state of another evolving trait (see Hansen et al. 2021 Systematic Biology <doi:10.1093/sysbio/syab079>). The package was released with Bolstad et al. (2014) <doi:10.1098/rstb.2013.0255>, which contains some examples of use.
