Could anyone give an example of AFLP presence/absence data written in Genepop format?

09 September 2012 0 8K Report

I have seen examples of the Genepop format, but never for dominant markers. Could anyone, additionally, provide a clear explanation of the format's characteristics?

For a PGLS analysis in Compare 4.6, can anyone propose sources of error or solutions for the following problems?

I am using Compare 4.6 software to perform PGLS on a large set of trait values using a known phylogeny (based on genetic distance; Taxa = 23, Traits = 110, phylogeny = 1). The problem is that when...

How does one interpret the output from a 'PGLS-Relationships' analysis in Compare 4.6b?

The output includes results for PGLS at a given alpha value, Felsenstein's independent contrasts and TIPS (where phylogeny is not accounted for). In my case, mean PGLS carries high alpha values...
