In multidna and multiphyDat, some individuals may not be sequenced for all genes, resulting in gap-only sequences for missing data.
The generic function rm.gaps
has method for both objects; it identifies the missing sequences, and removes gap-only sequences from the alignments wherever needed.
rm.gaps(x, ...)# S4 method for multidna
rm.gaps(x, ...)
# S4 method for multiphyDat
rm.gaps(x, ...)
a multidna or multiphyDat object.
further arguments passed to other methods (currently not used).
