Description

A S4 class that extends S4 PVR class in order to accommodate PSR analysis results.

Objects from the Class

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("PSR", ...).

Slots

PSRarea:

Object of class "data.frame" that contains PSR curve area.

PSR:

Object of class "data.frame" that contais accumulated r squared and eigenvalues.

Expect.area.values:

Object of class "list" that contains the expected null and neutral area values.

nullPSR:

Object of class "matrix" nested in the Expect.area.values slot that contains the expected null area values.

BrownianPSR:

Object of class "matrix" nested in the Expect.area.values slot that contains the expected Brownian (neutral) area values.

Eigen:

Object of class "list" that contains the eigenvalues and eigenvectors generated by phylogenetic distance matrix eigendecomposition. Inherited from PVR class.

phyDist:

Object of class "matrix" that contains a phylogenetic distance matrix. Inherited from PVR class.

phylo:

Object of class "phylo" that contains a phylogeny. Inherited from PVR class.

Selection:

Object of class "list" that contains the selection method (along with its statistics) used to select the vectors, the selected vectors IDs and a matrix that contains the selected vectors. Inherited from PVR class.

PVR:

Object of class "list" that contains the Philogenetic EigenVectors Regression r squared and residuals. Inherited from PVR class.

VarPart:

Object of class "list" that contains the variation partition components. Inherited from PVR class.

Extends

Class "PVR", directly.
