treedater-package treedater fits a molecular clock to a phylogenetic tree and estimates evolutionary rates and times of common ancestry.
boot Estimate of confidence intervals of molecular clock parameters with user-supplied set of bootstrap trees
dater Estimate a time-scaled tree and fit a molecular clock
goodnessOfFitPlot Produce a goodness of fit plot
outlierLineages Detect lineages with unusually large evolutionary divergence under the fitted treedater model
outlierTips Detect terminal lineages with unusually large evolutionary divergence under the fitted treedater model
parboot Estimate of confidence intervals using parametric bootstrap for molecular clock dating.
plot.bootTreedater Plots lineages through time and confidence intervals estimated by bootstrap.
relaxedClockTest Use parametric bootstrap to test if relaxed clock offers improved fit to data.
rootToTipRegressionPlot Plot evolutionary distance from root to sample times and estimated internal node times and regression lines
sampleYearsFromLabels Compute a vector of numeric sample times from labels in a sequence aligment or phylogeny
