GetVModified: Variance covariance matrix for the network model

Description

A function returns the variance covariance function for the network model under the Brownian motion for trait evolution.

Usage

GetVModified(x, phy, flow, actual.params)

Arguments

x

vector of the parameters: including rate of evolution $\sigma^2$, overall mean $\mu$, measurement error SE, hybrid vigor $\beta$, and variation at the burst of hybridization $v_H$.

phy

a class of phylo tree.

flow

a struture of gene flow.

actual.params

The parameters that are related to the hybridzation including the hybrid vigor $\beta$ and variation at the burst of hybridization $v_H$.

Value

the variance covariance matrix of size equal to the number of species on the tip of the phylogeny.

Details

This functon calculates the variance covariance matrix under the network model. The function first read tree in phylo class and convert the variance covariance matrix use the Brownian motion model. It then uses the structure of the gene flow to identify the hybrid species, parents and the direction of the flow. The covariance of between the hybrid and non hybrid species is the weighted sum of the covariance from evolution along the tree plus evolution along the migration path. For the detail model descript, please see Jhwueng and O'Meara 2015.

	ntax.hybrid<-1
	#simulate a network

	tree.height = 1, allow.ghost=FALSE)
	#assign the parameter values
	sigma.sq <- 0.01;mu <- 1;SE <- 0
