| VarPartplot {PVR} | R Documentation |
Plot function for objects of class PVR to show variation partition components.
Description
Plot a, b, c and d components of traits variation partition between phylogeny and environment (as defined by Desdevises et al., 2003).
Usage
VarPartplot(x, ...)
Arguments
x |
An object of class PVR with a non NULL slot VarPart. |
