Carries out calculation for spatial autocorrelation coefficient starting from a genetic and geogaphic distance matrix.
Arguments
- GD
Genetic distance matrix.
- GGD
Geographic distance matrix.
- permutation
Whether permutation calculations for the null hypothesis of no spatial structure should be carried out [default TRUE].
- bootstrap
Whether bootstrap calculations to compute the 95% confidence intervals around r should be carried out [default TRUE].
- bins
The number of bins for the distance classes (i.e.
length(bins) == 1)
or a vectors with the break points. See details [default 5].- reps
The number to be used for permutation and bootstrap analyses [default 100].
Value
Returns a data frame with the following columns:
Bin The distance classes
N The number of pairwise comparisons within each distance class
r.uc The uncorrected autocorrelation coefficient
if both bootstap
and permutation
are FALSE
otherwise only
r
estimates are returned
Details
The code of this function is based one spautocorr
from the package
PopGenReport
, which has been modified to fix a few bugs (as of
PopGenReport v 3.0.4
and allow calculations of bootstraps estimates.
See details from gl.spatial.autoCorr
for a detailed explanation.
