- CHANGES IN APE VERSION 2.8-1
+ CHANGES IN APE VERSION 3.0-8
+
+
+NEW FEATURES
+
+ o The new function ewLasso tests whether an incomplete set of
+ distances uniquely determines the edge weights of a given
+ unrooted topology using the 'Lasso' method by Dress et
+ al. (2012, J. Math. Biol. 65:77).
+
+ o ace() gains a new option 'use.expm' to use expm() from the
+ package of the same name in place of matexpo().
+
+
+BUG FIXES
+
+ o read.dna(, "fasta") may add '\r' in labels: this is fixed.
+
+ o prop.clades() returned wrong numbers when the tip labels of
+ 'phy' are not in the same order than the list of trees (thanks
+ to Rupert Collins for the report).
+
+ o CADM.post() displayed "1" on the diagonal of the matrix of
+ Mantel p-values. It now displays "NA" on the diagonal,
+ indicating that no test of significance is computed between a
+ distance matrix and itself.
+
+ o rtree(n, rooted = FALSE) returned trees with an 'edge' matrix
+ stored as doubles instead of integers for n > 4.
+
+
+OTHER CHANGES
+
+ o The files CDAM.global.R and CDAM.post.R have been renamed
+ CADM.global.R and CADM.post.R.
+
+ o ace() has a new default for its option 'method': this is "REML"
+ for continuous characters and "ML" for discrete ones.
+
+ o ape does not import gee anymore so the latter doesn't need to
+ be installed.
+
+
+
+ CHANGES IN APE VERSION 3.0-7
+
+
+NEW FEATURES
+
+ o The new function chronos estimates chronograms by penalised
+ likelihood and maximum likelihood with a completely reworked
+ code and interface. There is a new function makeChronosCalib to
+ set the calibration points easily. chronos() will eventually
+ replace chronopl().
+
+ o The new function 'where' searches patterns in DNA sequences.
+
+ o pic() gains an option 'rescaled.tree = FALSE' to return the tree
+ with its branch lengths rescaled for the PIC calculation.
+
+ o clustal(), muscle(), and tcoffee() gain an option
+ 'original.ordering = TRUE' to ease the comparisons of
+ alignments.
+
+ o plot.phylo() has a new option, open.angle, used when plotting
+ circular trees.
+
+ o The new function read.FASTA reads FASTA files much faster and
+ more efficiently. It is called internally by read.dna(, "fasta")
+ or can be called directly.
+
+
+BUG FIXES
+
+ o drop.tip() shuffled node labels on some trees.
+
+ o axisPhylo() now works correctly with circular trees, and gives a
+ sensible error message when type = "r" or "u".
+
+
+OTHER CHANGES
+
+ o .compressTipLabel() is 10 times faster thanks to Joseph Brown.
+
+ o base.freq() is now faster with lists.
+
+ o as.matrix.DNAbin() should be faster and more efficient with
+ lists; it now accepts vectors.
+
+
+
+ CHANGES IN APE VERSION 3.0-6
+
+
+NEW FEATURES
+
+ o reorder.phylo() has a new order, "postorder", and a new option
+ index.only = TRUE to return only the vector of indices (the tree
+ is unmodified, see ?reorder.phylo for details).
+
+ o The three new functions node.depth.edgelength, node.height, and
+ node.height.clado make some internal code available from R. See
+ ?node.depth (which was already documented) for details.
BUG FIXES
- o mantel.test() could return P-values > 1 with the default
+ o reorder(, "pruningwise") made R crash if the rows of the edge
+ matrix are in random order: this is now fixed.
+
+ o drop.tip() sometimes shuffled node labels (thanks to Rebecca
+ Best for the report).
+
+ o drop.tip(phy, "") returned a tree with zero-length tip labels:
+ it now returns the tree unchanged (thanks to Brian Anacker for
+ the report).
+
+ o plot.phylo() made R crash if the tree has zero-length tip
+ labels: it now returns NULL (thanks again to Brian Anacker).
+
+
+OTHER CHANGES
+
+ o dist.nodes() is now 6 to 10 times faster.
+
+ o reorder(, "cladewise") is now faster. The change is not very
+ visible for small trees (n < 1000) but this can be more than
+ 1000 faster for big trees (n >= 1e4).
+
+ o The attribute "order" of the objects of class "phylo" is now
+ strongly recommended, though not mandatory. Most functions in
+ ape should return a tree with this attribute correctly set.
+
+ o dbd() is now vectorized on both arguments 'x' (number of species
+ in clade) and 't' (clade age) to make likelihood calculations
+ easier and faster.
+
+
+
+ CHANGES IN APE VERSION 3.0-5
+
+
+BUG FIXES
+
+ o ace() should better catch errors when SEs cannot be computed.
+
+
+OTHER CHANGES
+
+ o write.dna(format = "fasta") now conforms more closely to the
+ FASTA standard thanks to François Michonneau.
+
+ o print.DNAbin() does not print base compositions if there are more
+ than one million nucleotides.
+
+
+
+ CHANGES IN APE VERSION 3.0-4
+
+
+BUG FIXES
+
+ o read.dna() failed to read Phylip files if the first line used
+ tabulations instead of white spaces.
+
+ o read.dna() failed to read Phylip or Clustal files with less than
+ 10 nucleotides. (See other changes in this function below.)
+
+OTHER CHANGES
+
+ o read.dna() now requires at least one space (or tab) between the
+ taxa names and the sequences (whatever the length of taxa
+ names). write.dna() now follows the same rule.
+
+ o The option 'seq.names' of read.dna has been removed.
+
+ o The files ape-defunct.R and ape-defunct.Rd, which have not been
+ modified for almost two years, have been removed.
+
+ o The C code of bionj() has been reworked: it is more stable (by
+ avoiding passing character strings), slightly faster (by about
+ 20%), and numerically more accurate.
+
+ o The C code of fastme.*() has been slightly modified and should
+ be more stable by avoiding passing character strings (the
+ results are identical to the previous versions).
+
+ o The file src/newick.c has been removed.
+
+
+
+ CHANGES IN APE VERSION 3.0-3
+
+
+BUG FIXES
+
+ o birthdeath() now catches errors and warnings much better so that
+ a result is returned in most cases.
+
+
+OTHER CHANGES
+
+ o Because of problems with character string manipulation in C, the
+ examples in ?bionj and in ?fastme have been disallowed. In the
+ meantime, these functions might be unstable. This will be solved
+ for the next release.
+
+
+
+ CHANGES IN APE VERSION 3.0-2
+
+
+NEW FEATURES
+
+ o The new function alex (alignment explorator) zooms in a DNA
+ alignment and opens the result in a new window.
+
+
+BUG FIXES
+
+ o compute.brtime() did not completely randomized the order of the
+ branching times.
+
+ o write.nexus() did not work correctly with rooted trees (thanks
+ to Matt Johnson for the fix).
+
+ o mltt.plot(, backward = FALSE) did not set the x-axis correctly.
+
+ o A bug was introduced in prop.clades() with ape 3.0. The help page
+ has been clarified relative to the use of the option 'rooted'.
+
+ o mantel.test() printed a useless warning message.
+
+ o plot.phylo(, direction = "downward") ignored 'y.lim'.
+
+ o is.monophyletic() did not work correctly if 'tips' was not stored
+ as integers.
+
+ o prop.part() could make R crash if the first tree had many
+ multichotomies.
+
+ o njs(), bionjs(), and mvrs() now return an error if 'fs < 1'.
+
+ o SDM() did not work correctly. The code has also been generally
+ improved.
+
+
+OTHER CHANGES
+
+ o The DESCRIPTION file has been updated.
+
+ o The option 'original.data' of write.nexus() has been removed.
+
+ o The files bionjs.c, mvr.c, mvrs.c, njs.c, triangMtd.c, and
+ triangMtds.c have been improved which should fix some bugs in
+ the corresponding functions.
+
+ o dist.gene() now coerces input data frame as matrix resulting in
+ much faster calculations (thanks to a suggestion by Markus
+ Schlegel).
+
+
+
+ CHANGES IN APE VERSION 3.0-1
+
+
+NEW FEATURES
+
+ o dist.dna() has two new models: "indel" and "indelblock".
+
+ o bind.tree() now accepts 'position' > 0 when the trees have no
+ banch length permitting to create a node in 'x' when grafting
+ 'y' (see ?bind.tree for details).
+
+
+BUG FIXES
+
+ o cophyloplot( , rotate = TRUE) made R hanged after a few clicks.
+ Also the tree is no more plotted twice.
+
+ o read.GenBank() has been updated to work with EFetch 2.0.
+
+ o unroot() on trees in "pruningwise" order did not respect this
+ attribute.
+
+
+
+ CHANGES IN APE VERSION 3.0
+
+
+NEW FEATURES
+
+ o The three functions dyule, dbd, and dbdTime calculate the
+ density probability (i.e., the distribution of the number of
+ species) for the Yule, the constant and the time-dependent
+ birth-beath models, respectively. These probabilities can be
+ conditional on no extinction and/or on a log-scale.
+
+ o plot.phylo() has a new option 'rotate.tree' to rotate unrooted,
+ fan, or radial trees around the center of the plot.
+
+ o boot.phylo() and prop.clades() have a new option rooted =
+ FALSE. Note that the behaviour of prop.part() is unchanged.
+
+ o edgelabels() has a new option 'date' to place labels on edges of
+ chronograms using the time scale (suggestion by Rob Lanfear).
+
+
+BUG FIXES
+
+ o In chronopl(), the code setting the initial dates failed in
+ complicated settings (several dates known within intervals).
+ This has been generally improved and should result in faster
+ and more efficient convergence even in simple settings.
+
+ o mantel.test() sometimes returned P-values > 1 with the default
two-tailed test.
o extract.clade() sometimes shuffled some tip labels (thanks to
Ludovic Mallet and Mahendra Mariadassou for the fix).
+ o clustal() should now find by default the executable under Windows.
+
OTHER CHANGES
o The code of mantel.test() has been adjusted to be consistent
with common permutation tests.
+ o The C code of base.freq() has been improved and is now nearly 8
+ times faster.
+
+ o The option 'original.data' of write.nexus() is now deprecated and
+ will be removed in a future release.
+
+ o The code of is.ultrametric() has been improved and is now 3 times
+ faster.
+
+ o The code of vcv.phylo() has been improved and is now 10 or 30
+ times faster for 100 or 1000 tips, respectively. Consequently,
+ fitting models with PGLS will be faster overall.
+
CHANGES IN APE VERSION 2.8
OTHER CHANGES
- o identify.phylo() now returns NULL if the user right-(instead of
- left-)clicks (an error was returned previously).
+ o identify.phylo() now returns NULL if the user right- (instead of
+ left-) clicks (an error was returned previously).
o read.nexus() should be robust to commands inserted in the TREES
block.
o base.freq() gains an option 'all' to count all the possible bases
including the ambiguous ones (defaults to FALSE).
- o read.nexus() now writes tree names in the NEXUS file if given a
+ o write.nexus() now writes tree names in the NEXUS file if given a
list of trees with names.
o A bug was fixed in phymltest(): the executable couldn't be found
in some cases.
- o Three bug have been fixed in ace(): computing the likelihood of
+ o Three bugs have been fixed in ace(): computing the likelihood of
ancestral states of discrete characters failed, custom models
did not work, and the function failed with a null gradient (a
warning message is now returned; this latter bug was also
present in yule.cov() as well and is now fixed).
- o pic() hanged out when missing data were present: a message error
- is now returned.
+ o pic() hanged out when missing data were present: an error is now
+ returned.
o A small bug was fixed in dist.dna() where the gamma correction
was not always correctly dispatched.
DNA sequences by specifying model = "raw".
o dist.phylo() has a new option `full' to possibly compute the
- distances among all tips and nodes of the tree. The default if
+ distances among all tips and nodes of the tree. The default is
`full = FALSE'.
