coalSpeciesTree
estimates species trees and can handle multiple
individuals per species.
coalSpeciesTree(tree, X = NULL, sTree = NULL)
The function returns an object of class phylo
.
an object of class multiPhylo
A phyDat
object to define which individual belongs to which
species.
A species tree which fixes the topology.

coalSpeciesTree
estimates a single linkage tree as suggested by Liu
et al. (2010) from the element wise minima of the cophenetic matrices of the
gene trees. It extends speciesTree
in ape as it allows that have
several individuals per gene tree.
