R2.test: Ramos-Onsins--Rozas Test of Neutrality

Description

This function computes Ramos-Onsins and Rozas's test of neutrality for a set of DNA sequences.

Usage

R2.test(x, B = 1000, theta = 1, plot = TRUE, quiet = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

x
a DNA matrix as an object of class "DNAbin".
B
the number of replicates used for the simulation procedure.
theta
the value of the $theta$ population parameter used in simulation procedure.
plot
a logical value specifying whether to plot the results (TRUE by default).
quiet
a logical value specifying whether to not display the progress of the simulations. The default is FALSE meaning that a progress bar is displayed by default.
...
further arguments passed to hist.

Value

  • a list with two elements: R2 the value of the test statistic $R_2$, and P.val the associated P-value. If B = 0 a single value, the test statistic, is returned
