Value

A list with each element giving the index of the individuals contained in each cluster.

Arguments

threshold

Distance cutoff for clustering. Default of 0.01 (1%).

Examples

data(anoteropsis)
anoSpp <- sapply(strsplit(dimnames(anoteropsis)[[1]], split="_"), 
	function(x) paste(x[1], x[2], sep="_"))
anoDist <- ape::dist.dna(anoteropsis)

tclust(anoDist)

#Names of individuals
anoClust <- tclust(anoDist)
lapply(anoClust, function(x) anoSpp[x])
