mvr: Minimum Variance Reduction
Description
Phylogenetic tree construction based on the minimum variance reduction.Usage
mvr(X, V)
mvrs(X, V, fs = 15)
Value
an object of class "phylo"
.Details
The MVR method can be seen as a version of BIONJ which is not
restricted to the Poison model of variance (Gascuel 2000).References
