mycorrhizal_network: Mycorrhizal network from La Réunion island

Description

Mycorrhizal intercation network between orchids and mycorrhizal fungi from La Réunion island (Martos et al., 2012) along with the reconstructed phylogenetic trees of the orchids and the fungal OTUs.

Usage

data(mycorrhizal_network)

Details

These phylogenies were constructed by maximum likelihood inference from four plastid genes for the orchids and one nuclear gene for the fungi. See Martos et al. (2012) for details.
