gammaContrastTest3: Test for difference in gamma diversity among three datasets

In douglasgscofield/dispersalDiversity: Analyse individual and genetic diversity of dispersal processes in biological populations

Description

The null hypothesis for this tests is that there is no difference in gamma diversity between the three datasets in tab.a, tab.b and and tab.c. The method was described in Scofield et al. (2012). There currently is no support for contrasting allelic data.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'divtable'
gammaContrastTest3(tab.a, tab.b, tab.c,
  zero.div.adjust = TRUE, n.resample = 10000, method = c("bootstrap",
  "permute"), test.quantiles = c(0.001, 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 0.9, 0.95, 0.99,
  0.999), ...)

## Default S3 method:
gammaContrastTest3(tab.a, tab.b, tab.c, ...)

Arguments

tab.a	Site-by-source table of class divtable
tab.b	Site-by-source table of class divtable
tab.c	Site-by-source table of class divtable
zero.div.adjust	Logical, if TRUE (the default), then groups with 0 within-group diversity are assigned a minimum diversity which is half the empirical diversity possible given the group size
n.resample	Number of iterations for creation of the null distribution
method	"bootstrap" or "permute", whether to create null distribution iterations with ("bootstrap") or without ("permute") replacement

Value

Class diversity_test object with the result of the test
