Comparative Methods for Phylogenetic Networks

Analyze the phenotypic evolution of species of hybrid origin on a phylogenetic network. This can detect a burst of variation at the formation of a hybrid as well as an increase or decrease in trait value at a hybridization event. Parameters are estimated by maximum likelihood, and model averaging can be done automatically. Users need to enter a comparative data set and a phylogenetic network.

This is a package for doing comparative methods on networks. It's been in peer review twice but not accepted, and the current version has a fatal flaw. So don't use it.

To install it (but see caveat above):

install.packages("BMhyb")
devtools::install_github("bomeara/BMhyb")
