carni70: Phylogeny and quantitative traits of carnivora

Description

This data set describes the phylogeny of 70 carnivora as reported by Diniz-Filho and Torres (2002). It also gives the geographic range size and body size corresponding to these 70 species.

Usage

data(carni70)

Format

carni70 is a list containing the 2 following objects:

tre

is a character string giving the phylogenetic tree in Newick format. Branch lengths are expressed as divergence times (millions of years)

tab

is a data frame with 70 species and two traits: size (body size (kg)) ; range (geographic range size (km)).

Examples

# NOT RUN {
data(carni70)
carni70.phy <- newick2phylog(carni70$tre)
plot(carni70.phy)

size <- scalewt(log(carni70$tab))[,1]
names(size) <- row.names(carni70$tab)
symbols.phylog(carni70.phy,size)
orthogram(size, phylog = carni70.phy)

yrange <- scalewt(carni70$tab[,2])
names(yrange) <- row.names(carni70$tab)
symbols.phylog(carni70.phy,yrange)
orthogram(yrange, phylog = carni70.phy)

  g1 <- s.label(cbind.data.frame(size, yrange), plabel.cex = 0)
  g2 <- addhist(g1)
