PVR (version 0.3)

VarPartplot: Plot function for objects of class PVR to show variation partition components.

Description

Plot a, b, c and d components of traits variation partition between phylogeny and environment (as defined by Desdevises et al., 2003).

Usage

VarPartplot(x, ...)

Arguments

x

An object of class PVR with a non NULL slot VarPart.

…

Parameters passed to the plot function.
