gl.genleastcost {dartR.spatial} | R Documentation |
Performs least-cost path analysis based on a friction matrix
Description
This function calculates the pairwise distances (Euclidean, cost path distances and genetic distances) of populations using a friction matrix and a spatial genind object. The genind object needs to have coordinates in the same projected coordinate system as the friction matrix. The friction matrix can be either a single raster of a stack of several layers. If a stack is provided the specified cost distance is calculated for each layer in the stack. The output of this function can be used with the functions wassermann from package PopGenReport and lgrMMRR from package PopGenReport to test for the significance of a layer on the genetic structure.
Usage
gl.genleastcost(
x,
fric.raster,
gen.distance,
NN = NULL,
pathtype = "leastcost",
plotpath = TRUE,
theta = 1,
verbose = NULL
)
Arguments
x |
A spatial gelight object. [required]. |
fric.raster |
A friction matrix [required]. |
gen.distance |
Specification which genetic distance method should be used to calculate pairwise genetic distances between populations ( 'D', 'Gst.Nei', 'Gst.Hedrick') or individuals ('kosman', 'propShared') [required]. |
NN |
Number of neighbours used when calculating the cost distance (possible values 4, 8 or 16). As the default is NULL a value has to be provided if pathtype='leastcost'. NN=8 is most commonly used. Be aware that linear structures may cause artefacts in the least-cost paths, therefore inspect the actual least-cost paths in the provided output [default NULL]. |
pathtype |
Type of cost distance to be calculated (based on function in
the |
plotpath |
switch if least cost paths should be plotted (works only if pathtype='leastcost'. Be aware this slows down the computation, but it is recommended to do this to check least cost paths visually. |
theta |
value needed for rSPDistance function. See
|
verbose |
Verbosity: 0, silent or fatal errors; 1, begin and end; 2, progress log; 3, progress and results summary; 5, full report [default 2, unless specified using gl.set.verbosity]. |
Value
Returns a list that consists of four pairwise distance matrices (Euclidean, Cost, length of path and genetic) and the actual paths as spatial line objects.

Examples
#this example takes about 20 seconds to run...
data(possums.gl)
library(raster) #needed for that example
landscape.sim <- readRDS(system.file('extdata','landscape.sim.rdata',
package='dartR.data'))
#use only 3 population (first 90 individuals) due to speed
glc <- gl.genleastcost(x=possums.gl,fric.raster=landscape.sim ,
gen.distance = 'D', NN=8, pathtype = 'leastcost',plotpath = TRUE)
#### run tests as implemented in PopGenreport (maybe need to install)
