Carnivores dataset

Description

Dataset of carnivores containing alignments of morphlogical continuous characters, a phylogeny, and an MCMC matrix produced by MCMCtree.

Usage

carnivores

Format

carnivores is a list with elements:

C.raw, a matrix of 29 3D-landmarks measurements from 19 species;

V.raw, a matrix of 29 3D-landmarks for 21 common foxes (Vulpes vulpes);

C.proc and V.proc, the corresponding matrices after Procrustes alignment;

var.foxes and R.sh, with estimates of the variance vector and correlation matrix for the landmarks in the 21 foxes;

M, a matrix of transformed landmarks (using the foxes variances and correlation matrix, with Cholesky metric) for the 19 carnivores;

pairedLM, a matrix describing the symmetry of the landmarks;

tree, the phylogeny of the 19 carnivores; and

mcmc, an MCMC sample of divergence times and morphological and molecular rates from an MCMCtree analysis.
