use_calibrations_each
wraps use_calibrations
to take each set of
given calibrations and use it independently as constraints for BLADJ or PATHd8
to date a given tree topology.
use_calibrations_each(phy = NULL, calibrations = NULL, ...)
A multiPhylo
object of trees with branch lengths proportional to time.
A phylo
object to use as tree topology.
A calibrations
object, an output of get_all_calibrations()
.
Arguments passed on to use_calibrations
dating_method
Tree dating algorithm to use. Options are "bladj" or "pathd8" (Webb et al., 2008, tools:::Rd_expr_doi("10.1093/bioinformatics/btn358"); Britton et al., 2007, tools:::Rd_expr_doi("10.1080/10635150701613783")).
type
The type of age to use as calibration. Options are "median", "mean", "min", or "max".
The output object stores the used calibrations
and dating_method
as
attributes(output)$datelife_calibrations
and attributes(output)$dating_method
.
If phy
has no branch lengths, dating_method
is ignores, and the function applies secondary
calibrations to date the tree with the BLADJ algorithm. See make_bladj_tree()
and use_calibrations_bladj()
.
If phy
has branch lengths, the function can use the PATHd8 algorithm. See use_calibrations_pathd8()
.
