vcv.phylo

a character giving the model used to compute the
    variances and covariances of the phynotype; by default
    <code>"Brownian"</code>. Currently only the Brownian model is available.

model

a logical indicating whether the correlation matrix should
    be returned (<code>TRUE</code>); by default the variance-covariance matrix
    is returned (<code>FALSE</code>).

This function computes the expected variances and covariances of a
  continuous phenotype assuming it evolves under a given model
  (currently only the model of Brownian motion is available).

multivariate

manip

ape provides functions for reading, writing, plotting,
  and manipulating phylogenetic trees, analyses of comparative data
  in a phylogenetic framework, analyses of diversification and
  macroevolution, computing distances from allelic and nucleotide
  data, reading nucleotide sequences, and several tools such as
  Mantel's test, computation of minimum spanning tree, the population
  parameter theta based on various approaches, nucleotide diversity,
  generalized skyline plots, estimation of absolute evolutionary rates
  and clock-like trees using mean path lengths, non-parametric rate
  smoothing and penalized likelihood, classifying genes in trees using
  the Klastorin-Misawa-Tajima approach. Phylogeny estimation can be done
  with the NJ, BIONJ, ME, and ML methods.
