calcEdgeDiversity: Calculate the diversity of edges within set time intervals
In DomBennett/MoreTreeTools: Tools for manipulating phylogenetic trees

Description Usage Arguments Details References Examples

Return a dataframe of edge number and a count based on the number descendents within n.intervals uniformly spaced time intervals.

1	calcEdgeDiversity(tree, n.intervals)

`tree`	phylogenetic tree (ape class)
`n.intervals`	number of intervals

Intervals are unifromely spaced from the root to the tip of the tree. Output can be provided to treeplot for colouring edges, see example.

edge.diversity <- calcEdgeDiversity (tree, n.intervals=4)
# convert to logged z-score to increase colour spectrum in plot
edge.diversity$count <- log (edge.diversity$count)
edge.diversity$col <- (edge.diversity$count - mean (edge.diversity$count)) / sd (edge.diversity$count)
