Computes the Robinson-Foulds (Robinson & Foulds 1981) distance between a set of trees in an object of class "multiPhylo"
.
multiRF(trees,quiet=FALSE,multi2di=FALSE)
A matrix containing distances.
object of class "multiPhylo"
consisting of two or more fully bifurcating, unrooted trees. If trees are rooted, they will be unrooted.
logical argument indicating whether or not to run quietly. (Defaults to FALSE
.)
logical argumenet indicating whether or not to resolve multifurcating trees. (Defaults to FALSE
.)

Computes the Robinson-Foulds distance between all phylogenies in an object of class "multiPhylo"
. Uses prop.part
internally for most of the heavy lifting.
