-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 3.1-3
+See:
 
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function rtt contributed by Rosemary McCloskey roots a
-      tree with dated tips in the location most compatible with the
-      assumption of a strict molecular clock.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o root(, resolve.root = TRUE) did not manage node labels correctly
-      in the case where 'outgroup' was already an outgroup of the tree.
-
-    o read.dna(file, format = "fasta") works (again) with URIs (i.e.,
-      file = "http://..." or "ftp://...").
-
-    o rotate() made R crash if the tree was not in cladewise order.
-
-    o which.edge() did not work correctly for trees not in cladewise
-      order.
-
-    o read.GenBank failed to read older GenBank records.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 3.1-2
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o plot.phylo: the option 'open.angle' now works also when type =
-      "radial". The option 'lab4ut' now works also for type = "radial"
-      or "fan"; the default is now NULL since it will behave
-      differently depending on 'type'.
-
-    o ace(, type = "discrete") gains an option 'marginal' (FALSE by
-      default). The default is now to do a joint reconstruction of
-      ancestral states.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o chronos: the gradients were not correctly computed when the age
-      of the root was unknown.
-
-    o prop.part() did not work with objects of class composite like
-      c("chronos", "phylo"). (Thanks to Steve Walker for the fix.)
-
-    o bionjs: a bug was fixed in the C code.
-
-    o read.GenBank() failed if a line starts with "ORIGIN" in the
-      description of the sequence (thanks to Sofia Sal Bregua for the
-      fix).
-
-    o cophyloplot() works better with length.line = 0.
-
-    o The internal function clado.build used to return trees with the
-      'edge' matrix stored as double instead of integer.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o base.freq() now checks the class of the data.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 3.1-1
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o rTraitCont: a bug was introduced in the previous release.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o ape now requires R 3.0.0 or higher.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 3.1
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o Two new functions, bitsplits and countBipartitions, handle
-      bipartitions (aka splits) more efficiently.
-
-    o The new generic function as.prop.part helps to convert among
-      classes of bipartitions.
-
-    o Two new functions, phydataplot and ring, helps to graphically
-      annotate trees. The help page has many examples.
-
-    o The new function LLT draws the theoretical LTT-plot under
-      specified values of speciation and extinction rates together
-      with a prediction interval. The function has several options for
-      flexible plotting.
-
-    o predict.compar.gee() gains a new option, newdata, to predict
-      values from new observations of the predictors. This works like
-      most predict() methods.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o root: the fix introduced in the previous version was not correct.
-
-    o compar.gee: using a user-defined link failed.
-
-    o plot.phylo: the tip labels were often outside the plotting area
-      with direction = "downward".
-
-    o unique.multiPhylo() did not work correctly with compressed lists.
-      This function now returns a vector of integers giving the
-      correspondance among similar trees.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o add.scale.bar() now draws a longer bar by default.
-
-    o In boot.phylo(), the data 'x' must be a matrix-like object
-      (lists are no more accepted).
-
-    o boot.phylo() uses by default (ie, if rooted = FALSE) the new
-      function countBipartitions, and so should be much faster even
-      with small sample sizes and especially if the number of
-      bootstrap replicates is large.
-
-    o plot.phylo(, type = "fan") now colours the arcs in the same way
-      than the default type = "p".
-
-    o All instances of DUP=FALSE in calls of .C have been removed.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 3.0-11
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o branching.times() now reorders the tree if needed.
-
-    o root(, resolved.root = TRUE) sometimes misplaced the root when
-      'outgroup' was of length one.
-
-    o nodelabels() didn't work with versions of R older than 3.0.0.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o The code of branching.times() is now ca. 3 times faster.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 3.0-10
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function rotateConstr rotates internal branches given a
-      constraint on the order of the tips.
-
-    o plot.phylo() has a new option, node.depth, to specify the depths
-      of nodes when the tree is plotted without branch lengths.
-      node.depth() has a new option, method, with the same effect.
-
-    o ace() has a new option, use.eigen, used when type = "d" to avoid
-      computing matrix exponentials. With other coding improvements,
-      the function is now about five times faster.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o node.height() and node.height.clado() returned wrong values.
-
-    o pie charts drawn by nodelabels(), and other functions, used to
-      draw a "3-o'clock" segment when only one proportion was equal to
-      one (fixed by Klaus).
-
-    o plot(phy, main = "title...") now works again.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o Improved DESCRIPTION and NAMESPACE files.
-
-    o The C routines are now registered.
-
-    o The generic function as.igraph has been removed from ape as it
-      is now defined in the package igraph.
-
-    o node.height() has now an option 'clado.style' (FALSE by default).
-      node.height.clado() will be removed soon.
-
-    o The code of several functions has been improved.
-
-
-DEPRECATED & DEFUNCT
-
-    o mst() has been moved to pegas.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 3.0-9
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o getMRCA() is now documented.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o ace(, type = "d") now checks for zero or negative branch lengths.
-
-    o ace(, type = "d") now catches the error if the SEs of the rates
-      cannot be calculated (usually due to a poor model fit).
-
-    o reorder.phylo() made R crash with badly conformed "phylo" trees.
-
-    o drop.tip(phy, interactive = TRUE) did not work.
-
-    o drop.tip() now returns NULL (with a warning) if all tips are
-      dropped.
-
-    o mixedFontLabel() failed when passed only one vector of
-      labels. It also failed when labels included - or '. In some
-      cases, spaces in labels were not treated correctly.
-
-    o root(, resolve.root = TRUE) wrongly placed the new root node
-      when the outgroup has more than one tip. This is fixed, and now
-      the root node is placed at the MRCA of the outgroup (and not of
-      the ingroup).
-
-    o where() failed with matrices.
-
-
-
-		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 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 Fran�ois 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 yule() has been simplified and is now much faster for
-      big trees.
-
-    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
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o Twelve new functions have been written by Andrei-Alin Popescu:
-      additive, ultrametric, is.compatible, arecompatible, mvr, mvrs,
-      njs, bionjs, SDM, treePop, triangMtd, triangMtd*.
-
-    o A new class "bitsplits" has been created by Andrei-Alin Popescu
-      to code splits (aka, bipartition).
-
-    o There is a new generic function as.bitsplits with a method to
-      convert from the class "prop.part" to the class "bitsplits".
-
-    o The new function ltt.coplot plots on the same scales a tree and
-      the derived LTT plot.
-
-    o ltt.plot() has two new options: backward and tol. It can now
-      handle non-ultrametic trees and its internal coding has been
-      improved. The coordinates of the plot can now be computed with
-      the new function ltt.plot.coords.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o prop.part() crashed if some trees had some multichotomies.

-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function compute.brtime computes and sets branching times.
-
-    o mantel.test() has a new argument 'alternative' which is
-      "two-sided" by default. Previously, this test was one-tailed
-      with no possibility to change.
-
-    o ace() can now do REML estimation with continuous characters,
-      giving better estimates of the variance of the Brownian motion
-      process.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o Branch lengths were wrongly updated with bind.tree(, where = <tip>,
-      position = 0). (Thanks to Liam Revell for digging this bug out.)
-
-    o Simulation of OU process with rTraitCont() did not work correctly.
-      This now uses formula from Gillespie (1996) reduced to a BM
-      process when alpha = 0 to avoid division by zero. The option
-      'linear' has been removed.
-
-    o Cross-validation in chronopl() did not work when 'age.max' was
-      used.
-
-    o consensus(, p = 0.5) could return an incorrect tree if some
-      incompatible splits occur in 50% of the trees (especially with
-      small number of trees).
-
-    o c() with "multiPhylo" did not work correctly (thanks to Klaus
-      Schliep for the fix).
-
-    o root() failed in some cases with an outgroup made of several tips.
-      The help page has been clarified a bit.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 2.7-2
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-

-      "network", and "igraph".
-
-    o The new function rTraitMult does multivariate traits simulation
-      with user-defined models.
-
-    o plot.phylo() has a new option 'plot = TRUE'. If FALSE, the tree
-      is not plotted but the graphical device is set and the
-      coordinates are saved as usual.
-
-    o diversity.contrast.test() gains a fourth version of the test with
-      method = "logratio"; the literature citations have been clarified.
-
-    o add.scale.bar() has two new options, 'lwd' and 'lcol', to modify
-      the aspect of the bar.
-
-    o boot.phylo() now displays a progress bar by default (can be off
-      if 'quiet = TRUE').
-
-    o There is a new predict() method for compar.gee().
-
-

-
-    o drop.tip() returned a wrong tree if 'tip' was of zero length.
-
-    o read.nexus.data() failed with URLs.

-      some '-' and no 'N'.
-
-    o .compressTipLabel() failed with a list with a single tree.
-
-    o identify.phylo() returned a wrong answer when the x- and y-scales
-      are very different.
-
-    o write.nexus() failed with lists of trees with compressed labels.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES

-      left-) clicks (an error was returned previously).
-
-    o read.nexus() should be robust to commands inserted in the TREES
-      block.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 2.7

-      alignments in a flexible and efficient way.
-
-    o Two new functions as.network.phylo and as.igraph.phylo convert
-      trees of class "phylo" into these respective network classes
-      defined in the packages of the same names.
-
-    o The three new functions clustal, muscle, and tcoffee perform
-      nucleotide sequence alignment by calling the external programs
-      of the same names.
-
-    o Four new functions, diversity.contrast.test, mcconwaysims.test,
-      richness.yule.test, and slowinskiguyer.test, implement various
-      tests of diversification shifts using sister-clade comparisons.
-
-    o base.freq() gains an option 'all' to count all the possible bases
-      including the ambiguous ones (defaults to FALSE).
-
-    o write.nexus() now writes tree names in the NEXUS file if given a
-      list of trees with names.

-
-    o bind.tree() shuffled node labels when position > 0 and 'where'
-      was not the root.
-
-

-    o BaseProportion in src/dist_dna.c has been modified.
-
-    o A number of functions in src/tree_build.c have been modified.

-    o as.hclust.phylo() now returns an error with unrooted trees.
-
-    o as.hclust.phylo() failed with trees with node labels (thanks to
-      Jinlong Zhang for pointing this bug out).

-      length.
-
-    o plot.phylo() did not recycle values of 'font', 'cex' and
-      'tip.color' correctly when type = "fan" or "radial".
-
-    o plot.phylo() ignored 'label.offset' when type = "radial", "fan", or
-      "unrooted" with lab4ut = "axial" (the placement of tip labels still
-      needs to be improved with lab4ut = "horizontal").
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o In drop.fossil() the default tol = 0 has been raised to 1e-8.
-
-    o The help command ?phylo now points to the man page of read.tree()
-      where this class is described. Similarly, ?matching points to the
-      man page of as.matching().

-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o Two new functions, pic.ortho and varCompPhylip, implements the
-      orthonormal contrasts of Felsenstein (2008, Am Nat, 171:713). The
-      second function requires Phylip to be installed on the computer.

-      conditioned on no extinction for the taxonomic data.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-

-    o mcmc.popsize() terminated unexpectedly if the progress bar was
-      turned off.
-
-    o prop.part(x) made R frozen if 'x' is of class "multiPhylo".

-      Filipe Vieira for the fix).
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 2.6
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new functions rlineage and rbdtree simulate phylogenies under
-      any user-defined time-dependent speciation-extinction model. They
-      use continuous time algorithms.
-
-    o The new function drop.fossil removes the extinct species from a
-      phylogeny.
-
-    o The new function bd.time fits a user-defined time-dependent
-      birth-death model. It is a generalization of yule.time() taking
-      extinction into account.
-
-    o The new function MPR does most parsimonious reconstruction of
-      discrete characters.
-
-    o The new function Ftab computes the contingency table of base
-      frequencies from a pair of sequences.

-
-    o dist.dna() can compute the number of transitions or transversions
-      with the option model = "Ts" or model = "Tv", respectively.
-
-    o [node|tip|edge]labels() gain three options with default values to
-      control the aspect of thermometers: horiz = TRUE, width = NULL,
-      and height = NULL.
-
-    o compar.gee() has been improved with the new option 'corStruct' as an
-      alternative to 'phy' to specify the correlation structure, and
-      calculation of the QIC (Pan 2001, Biometrics). The display of the
-      results has also been improved.
-
-    o read.GenBank() has a new option 'gene.names' to return the name of
-      the gene (FALSE by default).
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o extract.clade() sometimes shuffled the tip labels.
-
-    o plot.phylo(type = "unrooted") did not force asp = 1 (thanks to Klaus
-      Schliep for the fix)

-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function mixedFontLabel helps to make labels with bits of
-      text to be plotted in different fonts.
-
-    o There are now replacement operators for [, [[, and $ for the class
-      "multiPhylo" (i.e., TREES[11:20] <- rmtree(10, 100)). They possibly
-      check that the tip labels are the same in all trees.
-
-    o Objects of class "multiPhylo" can be built with c(): there are
-      methods for the classes "phylo" and "multiPhylo".
-
-    o The internal functions .compressTipLabel and .uncompressTipLabel are
-      now documented.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o bind.tree(x, y, where, position = 0) did not work correctly if 'y'
-      was a single-edge tree and 'where' was a tip.
-
-    o rTraitCont() did not use the square-root of branch lengths when
-      simulating a Brownian motion model.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 2.5-2
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o There is now a print method for results from ace().
-
-    o There is a labels() method for objects of class "DNAbin".

-      in a FASTA file to be stored in a matrix (see ?read.dna for details).
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o as.phylo.hclust() used to multiply edge lengths by 2.
-
-    o A minor bug was fixed in rTraitDisc().
-
-    o ace() sometimes failed (parameter value was NaN and the optimisation
-      failed).
-
-
-DEPRECATED & DEFUNCT
-
-    o evolve.phylo() and plot.ancestral() have been removed.
-
-    o chronogram(), ratogram(), and NPRS.criterion() have been removed.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o nj() has been improved and is now about 30% faster.
-

-      'interactive' option to make the operation on a plotted tree.
-
-    o cophyloplot() gains two new arguments 'lwd' and 'lty' for the
-      association links; they are recycled like 'col' (which wasn't before).
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o rTraitDisc() did not use its 'freq' argument correctly (it was
-      multiplied with the rate matrix column-wise instead of row-wise).
-
-    o [node|tip|edge]labels(thermo = ) used to draw empty thermometers
-      with NA values. Nothing is drawn now like with 'text' or 'pch'.
-      The same bug occurred with the 'pie' option.
-
-    o A bug was fixed in compar.ou() and the help page was clarified.
-
-    o bind.tree() has been rewritten fixing several bugs and making it
-      more efficient.
-
-    o plot.phylo(type = "p") sometimes failed to colour correctly the
-      vertical lines representing the nodes.
-
-    o plot.phylo(direction = "l", x.lim = 30) failed to plot the branches
-      in the correct direction though the tip labels were displayed
-      correctly.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o The c, cbind, and rbind methods for "DNAbin" objetcs now check that
-      the sequences are correctly stored (in a list for c, in a matrix
-      for the two other functions).
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 2.5
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function parafit by Pierre Legendre tests for the
-      coevolution between hosts and parasites. It has a companion
-      function, pcoa, that does principal coordinate decomposition.
-      The latter has a biplot method.
-
-    o The new function lmorigin by Pierre Legendre performs multiple
-      regression through the origin with testing by permutation.
-
-    o The new functions rTraitCont and rTraitDisc simulate continuous and
-      discrete traits under a wide range of evolutionary models.
-
-    o The new function delta.plot does a delta plot following Holland et
-      al. (2002, Mol. Biol. Evol. 12:2051).
-
-    o The new function edges draws additional branches between any nodes
-      and/or tips on a plotted tree.
-
-    o The new function fancyarrows enhances arrows from graphics with
-      triangle and harpoon heads; it can be called from edges().
-
-    o add.scale.bar() has a new option 'ask' to draw interactively.
-
-    o The branch length score replaces the geodesic distance in dist.topo.
-
-    o Three new data sets are included: the gopher-lice data (gopher.D),
-      SO2 air pollution in 41 US cities (lmorigin.ex1, from Sokal &
-      Rohlf 1995), and some host-parasite specificity data
-      (lmorigin.ex2, from Legendre & Desdevises 2009).
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o add.scale.bar() drew the bar outside the plotting region with the
-      default options with unrooted or radial trees.
-
-    o dist.topo() made R stuck when the trees had different sizes (thanks
-      to Otto Cordero for the fix).
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o The geodesic distance has been replaced by the branch length score
-      in dist.topo().
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 2.4-1
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o rtree() and rcoal() now accept a numeric vector for the 'br'
-      argument.
-
-    o vcv() is a new generic function with methods for the classes "phylo"
-      and "corPhyl" so that it is possible to calculate the var-cov matrix
-      for "transformation models". vcv.phylo() can still be used for trees
-      of class "phylo"; its argument 'cor' has been renamed 'corr'.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o bind.tree() failed when 'y' had no root edge.
-
-    o read.nexus() shuffled tip labels when the trees have no branch
-      lengths and there is a TRANSLATE block.
-
-    o read.nexus() does not try to translate node labels if there is a
-      translation table in the NEXUS file. See ?read.nexus for a
-      clarification on this behaviour.
-
-    o plot.multiPhylo() crashed R when plotting a list of trees with
-      compressed tip labels.
-
-    o write.nexus() did not translate the taxa names when asked for.
-
-    o plot.phylo(type = "fan") did not rotate the tip labels correctly
-      when the tree has branch lengths.
-
-    o ace(type = "continuous", method = "ML") now avoids sigma� being
-      negative (which resulted in an error).
-
-    o nj() crashed with NA/NaN in the distance matrix: an error in now
-      returned.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 2.4

-      are now ignored.
-
-    o plot(phy, root.edge = TRUE) failed if there was no $root.edge in
-      the tree: the argument is now ignored.
-
-    o add.scale.bar() failed when 'x' and 'y' were given (thanks to Janet
-      Young for the fix).
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o Trying to plot a tree with a single tip now returns NULL with a
-      warning (it returned an error previously).
-
-    o The way lines representing nodes are coloured in phylograms has
-      been modified (as well as their widths and types) following some
-      users' request; this is only for dichotomous nodes.
-
-    o The argument 'adj' in [node][tip][edge]labels() now works when
-      using 'pie' or 'thermo'.
-
-    o A more informative message error is now returned by dist.dna() when
-      'model' is badly specified (partial matching of this argument is
-      done now).
-
-    o Deprecated functions are now listed in a help page: see
-      help("ape-defunct") with the quotes.

-
-    o read.nexus() did not work correctly in some situations (trees on
-      multiple lines with different numbers of lines and/or with
-      comments inserted within the trees).
-
-    o ltt.plot(), ltt.lines(), and mltt.plot() did not count correctly
-      the number of lineages with non-binary trees.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES

-
-    o drop.tip() has been improved: it should be much faster and work
-      better in some cases (e.g., see the example in ?zoom).
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 2.2-2
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o dist.gene() has been substantially improved and gains an option

-      more flexible.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o prop.part() failed with a single tree with the default option
-     'check.labels = TRUE'.
-
-   o summary.DNAbin() failed to display correctly the summary of
-     sequence lengths with lists of sequences of 10,000 bases or more
-     (because summary.default uses 4 significant digits by default).
-

-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function makeLabel() helps to modify labels of trees,
-      lists of trees, or DNA sequences, with several utilities to
-      truncate and/or make them unique, substituting some
-      characters, and so on.
-
-    o The new function del.gaps() removes insertion gaps ("-") in a
-      set of DNA sequences.
-
-    o read.dna() can now read Clustal files (*.aln).

-      already the specified root.
-
-    o Several bugs were fixed in mlphylo().
-
-    o collapsed.singles() did not propagate the 'Nnode' and

-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o Four new functions have been written by Damien de Vienne for the
-      graphical exploration of large trees (cophyloplot, subtrees,
-      subtreeplot), and to return the graphical coordinates of tree
-      (without plotting).
-
-    o The new functions corPagel and corBlomberg implement the Pagel's
-      "lambda" and Blomberg et al.'s "ACDC" correlation structures.
-
-    o chronopl() has been improved and gains several options: see its
-      help page for details.
-
-    o boot.phylo() has now an option 'trees' to possibly return the
-      bootstraped trees (the default is FALSE).
-
-    o prop.part() has been improved and should now be faster in all
-      situations.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o read.dna() failed if "?" occurred in the first 10 sites of the
-      first sequence.
-
-    o The x/y aspect of the plot is now respected when plotting a
-      circular tree (type = "r" or "f").
-
-    o Drawing the tip labels sometimes failed when plotting circular
-      trees.
-
-    o zoom() failed when tip labels were used instead of their numbers
-      (thanks to Yan Wong for the fix).
-
-    o drop.tip() failed with some trees (fixed by Yan Wong).
-
-    o seg.sites() failed with a list.
-
-    o consensus() failed in some cases. The function has been improved

-
-    o multi2di() failed if the tree had its attribute "order" set to
-      "cladewise".
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 2.1-2
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o There three new methods for the "multiPhylo" class: str, $,
-      and [[.
-
-    o root() gains the options 'node' and 'resolve.root'
-      (FALSE by default) as well as its code being improved.
-
-    o mltt.plot() has now an option 'log' used in the same way
-      than in plot.default().
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o mltt.plot() failed to display the legend with an unnamed
-      list of trees.
-
-    o nodelabels() with pies now correcly uses the argument
-      'cex' to draw symbols of different sizes (which has
-      worked already for thermometers).
-
-    o read.nexus() generally failed to read very big files.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o The argument 'family' of compar.gee() can now be a function
-      as well as a character string.
-
-    o read.tree() and read.nexus() now return an unnamed list if
-      'tree.names = NULL'.
-
-    o read.nexus() now returns a modified object of class "multiPhylo"
-      when there is a TRANSLATE block in the NEXUS file: the individual
-      trees have no 'tip.label' vector, but the list has a 'TipLabel'
-      attribute. The new methods '$' and '[[' set these elements
-      correctly when extracting trees.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 2.1-1
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function rmtree generates lists of random trees.

-      pairwise.deletion = FALSE.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES

-      are loaded only when needed.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 2.1
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function identify.phylo identifies clades on a plotted
-      tree using the mouse.
-
-    o It is now possible to subset a list of trees (object of class
-      "multiPhylo") with "[" while keeping its class correct.
-
-    o The new function as.DNAbin.alignment converts DNA sequences
-      stored in the "alignment" format of the package seqinr into

-      given two taxonomic levels (usually called by other functions).
-
-    o write.tree() can now take a list of trees (class "multiPhylo")
-      as its main argument.
-
-    o plot.correlogram() and plot.correlogramList() have been
-      improved, and gain several options (see the help page for
-      details). A legend is now plotted by default.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o dist.dna() returned some incorrect values with `model = "JC69"'
-      and `pairwise.deletion = TRUE'. This affected only the
-      distances involving sequences with missing values. (Thanks
-      to Bruno Toupance for digging this bug out.)
-
-    o write.tree() failed with some trees: this is fixed by removing
-      the `multi.line' option (trees are now always printed on a
-      single line).
-
-    o read.nexus() did not correctly detect trees with multiple root
-      edges (see OTHER CHANGES).
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o The code of mlphylo() has been almost entirely rewritten, and
-      should be much stabler. The options have been also greatly
-      simplified (see ?mlphylo and ?DNAmodel for details).
-
-    o The internal function nTips has been renamed klastorin_nTips.
-
-    o The code of is.ultrametric() contained redundancies and has
-      been cleaned-up.
-
-    o The code of Moran.I() and of correlogram.formula() have been
-      improved.
-
-    o read.tree() and read.nexus() now return an error when trying to
-      read a tree with multiple root edges (see BUG FIXES). The
-      correction applied in previous version did not work in all
-      situations.
-
-    o The class c("multi.tree", "phylo") has been renamed
-      "multiPhylo".
-
-
-DOCUMENTATION
-
-    o There is now a vignette in ape: see vignette("MoranI", "ape").
-
-
-DEPRECATED & DEFUNCT

-      matrix.
-
-    o The new function unique.multi.tree removes duplicate trees from
-      a list.
-
-    o yule() has a new option `use.root.edge = FALSE' that specifies
-      to ignore, by default, the root edge of the tree if it exists.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o which.edge() failed when the index of a single terminal edge was
-      looked for.
-
-    o In diversi.time(), the values returned for model C were
-      incorrect.
-
-    o A bug was fixed in yule() that affected the calculation of the
-      likelihood in the presence of ties in the branching times.
-
-    o There was a bug in the C function mat_expo4x4 affecting the
-      calculations of the transition probabilities for models HKY and
-      GTR in mlphylo().
-
-    o A small bug was fixed in as.matrix.DNAbin (thanks to James
-      Bullard).
-
-    o rtree() did not `shuffle' the tip labels by default, so only a
-      limited number of labelled topologies could be generated.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 2.0-1
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The three new functions bionj, fastme.ols, and fastme.bal
-      perform phylogeny estimation by the BIONJ and fastME methods in
-      OLS and balanced versions. This is a port to R of previous
-      previous programs done by Vincent Lefort.
-
-    o The new function chronoMPL performs molecular dating with the
-      mean path lengths method of Britton et al. (2002, Mol. Phyl.
-      Evol. 24: 58).
-
-    o The new function rotate, contributed by Christoph Heibl, swaps
-      two clades connected to the same node. It works also with
-      multichotomous nodes.
-
-    o The new `method' as.matrix.DNAbin() may be used to convert
-      easily DNA sequences stored in a list into a matrix while
-      keeping the names and the class.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o chronopl() failed when some branch lengths were equal to zero:
-      an error message is now returned.
-
-    o di2multi() failed when there was a series of consecutive edges
-      to remove.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.10-2
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o plot.phylo() can now plot circular trees: the option is type =
-      "fan" or type = "f" (to avoid the ambiguity with type = "c").
-
-    o prop.part() has a new option `check.labels = FALSE' which allows
-      to considerably speed-up the calculations of bipartitions. As a
-      consequence, calculations of bootstrap values with boot.phylo()
-      should be much faster.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o read.GenBank() did not return correctly the list of species as
-      from ape 1.10: this is fixed in this version
-
-    o Applying as.phylo() on a tree of class "phylo" failed: the
-      object is now returned unchanged.

-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The three new functions Ntip, Nnode, and Nedge return, for a
-      given tree, the number of tips, nodes, or edges, respectively.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o read.nexus() did not set correctly the class of the returned
-      object when reading multiple trees.
-
-    o mllt.plot() failed with objects of class c("multi.tree",
-      "phylo").
-
-    o unroot() did not work correctly in most cases.
-
-    o reorder.phylo() made R freeze in some occasions.
-
-    o Plotting a tree in pruningwise order failed.
-
-    o When plotting an unrooted tree, the tip labels where not all
-      correctly positioned if the option `cex' was used.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.10
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o Five new `method' functions have been introduced to manipulate
-      DNA sequences in binary format (see below).
-
-    o Three new functions have been introduced to convert between the
-      new binary and the character formats.
-
-    o The new function as.alignment converts DNA sequences stored as
-      single characters into the class "alignment" used by the package
-      seqinr.
-
-    o read.dna() and read.GenBank() have a new argument `as.character'
-      controlling whether the sequences are returned in binary format
-      or as character.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o root() failed when the tree had node labels: this is fixed.
-
-    o plot.phylo() did not correctly set the limits on the y-axis with
-      the default setting: this is fixed.
-
-    o dist.dna() returned a wrong result for the LogDet, paralinear,
-      and BH87 models with `pairwise.deletion = TRUE'.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o DNA sequences are now internally stored in a binary format. See
-      the document "A Bit-Level Coding Scheme for Nucleotides" for the
-      details. Most functions analyzing DNA functions have been
-      modified accordingly and are now much faster (dist.dna is now
-      ca. 60 times faster).
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.9-4
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o A bug was fixed in edgelabels().
-
-    o as.phylo.hclust() did not work correctly when the object of
-      class "hclust" has its labels set to NULL: the returned tree has
-      now its tip labels set to "1", "2", ...
-
-    o consensus could fail if some tip labels are a subset of others
-      (e.g., "a" and "a_1"): this is now fixed.
-
-    o mlphylo() failed in most cases if some branch lengths of the
-      initial tree were greater than one: an error message is now
-      issued.
-
-    o mlphylo() failed in most cases when estimating the proportion of
-      invariants: this is fixed.
-
-
-
-      		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.9-3

-      default option `random = TRUE': this is now fixed.
-
-    o A bug was fixed in nuc.div() when using pairwise deletions.
-
-    o A bug occurred in the analysis of bipartitions with large
-      numbers of large trees, with consequences on prop.part,
-      prop.clades, and boot.phylo.
-
-    o The calculation of the Billera-Holmes-Vogtmann distance in
-      dist.topo was wrong: this has been fixed.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.9-2
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function ladderize reorganizes the internal structure of
-      a tree to plot them left- or right-ladderized.
-
-    o The new function dist.nodes computes the patristic distances
-      between all nodes, internal and terminal, of a tree. It replaces
-      the option `full = TRUE' of cophenetic.phylo (see below).
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o A bug was fixed in old2new.phylo().
-
-    o Some bugs were fixed in chronopl().
-
-    o The edge colours were not correctly displayed by plot.phylo

-
-    o cophenetic.phylo() failed with multichotomous trees: this is
-      fixed.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o read.dna() now returns the sequences in a matrix if they are
-      aligned (interleaved or sequential format). Sequences in FASTA
-      format are still returned in a list.
-
-    o The option `full' of cophenetic.phylo() has been removed because
-      it could not be used from the generic.
-
-
-DEPRECATED & DEFUNCT
-
-    o rotate() has been removed; this function did not work correctly
-      since ape 1.9.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.9-1
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o Trees with a single tip were not read correctly in R as the
-      element `Nnode' was not set: this is fixed.
-
-    o unroot() did not set correctly the number of nodes of the
-      unrooted tree in most cases.
-
-    o read.GenBank() failed when fetching very long sequences,
-      particularly of the BX-series.
-
-    o A bug was introduced in read.tree() with ape 1.9: it has been
-      fixed
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.9
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o There are two new print `methods' for trees of class "phylo" and
-      lists of trees of class "multi.tree", so that they are now
-      displayed in a compact and informative way.
-
-    o There are two new functions, old2new.phylo and new2old.phylo,
-      for converting between the old and new coding of the class
-      "phylo".
-
-    o dist.dna() has three new models: Barry and Hartigan ("BH87"),
-      LogDet ("logdet"), and paralinear ("paralin").
-
-    o compute.brlen() has been extended: several methods are now
-      available to compute branch lengths.
-
-    o write.dna() can now handle matrices as well as lists.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o cophenetic.phylo() sometimes returned a wrong result with
-      multichotomous trees: this is fixed.

-    o rotate() failed when a single tip was specified: the tree is now
-      returned unchanged.
-
-    o ace() did not return the correct index matrix with custom
-      models: this is fixed.
-
-    o multi2di() did not work correctly when resolving multichotomies
-      randomly: the topology was always the same, only the arrangement
-      of clades was randomized: this is fixed. This function now
-      accepts trees with no branch lengths.
-
-    o The output of diversi.gof() was blurred by useless prints when a
-      user distribution was specified. This has been corrected, and
-      the help page of this function has been expanded.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o The internal structure of the class "phylo" has been changed:
-      see the document "Definition of Formats for Coding Phylogenetic
-      Trees in R" for the details. In addition, the code of most
-      functions has been improved.
-
-    o Several functions have been improved by replacing some R codes
-      by C codes: pic, plot.phylo, and reorder.phylo.
-
-    o There is now a citation information: see citation("ape") in R.
-
-    o write.tree() now does not add extra 0's to branch lengths so
-      that 1.23 is printed "1.23" by default, not "1.2300000000".
-
-    o The syntax of bind.tree() has been simplified. This function now
-      accepts trees with no branch lengths, and handles correctly node
-      labels.
-
-    o The option `as.numeric' of mrca() has been removed.
-
-    o The unused options `format' and `rooted' of read.tree() have
-      been removed.
-
-    o The unused option `format' of write.tree() has been removed.
-
-    o The use of node.depth() has been simplified.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.8-5
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o Two new functions read.nexus.data() and write.nexus.data(),
-      contributed by Johan Nylander, allow to read and write molecular
-      sequences in NEXUS files.
-
-    o The new function reorder.phylo() reorders the internal structure
-      of a tree of class "phylo". It is used as the generic, e.g.,
-      reorder(tr).
-
-    o read.tree() and read.nexus() can now read trees with a single
-      edge.
-
-    o The new data set `cynipids' supplies a set of protein sequences
-      in NEXUS format.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o The code of all.equal.phylo() has been completely rewritten
-      (thanks to Beno�t Durand) which fixes several bugs.
-
-    o read.tree() and read.nexus() now checks the labels of the tree
-      to remove or substitute any characters that are illegal in the
-      Newick format (parentheses, etc.)
-
-    o A negative P-value could be returned by mantel.test(): this is
-      now fixed.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.8-4
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function sh.test() computes the Shimodaira-
-      Hasegawa test.
-
-    o The new function collapse.singles() removes the nodes with a
-      single descendant from a tree.
-
-    o plot.phylo() has a new argument `tip.color' to specify the
-      colours of the tips.
-
-    o mlphylo() has now an option `quiet' to control the display of
-      the progress of the analysis (the default is FALSE).
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o read.dna() did not read correctly sequences in sequential format
-      with leading alignment gaps "-": this is fixed.
-
-    o ace() returned a list with no class so that the generic
-      functions (anova, logLik, ...) could not be used directly. This
-      is fixed as ace() now returns an object of class "ace".
-
-    o anova.ace() had a small bug when computing the number of degrees
-      of freedom: this is fixed.
-
-    o mlphylo() did not work when the sequences were in a matrix or
-      a data frame: this is fixed.
-
-    o rtree() did not work correctly when trying to simulate an
-      unrooted tree with two tips: an error message is now issued.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o The algorithm of rtree() has been changed: it is now about 40,
-      100, and 130 times faster for 10, 100, and 1000 tips,
-      respectively.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.8-3
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o There are four new `method' functions to be used with the
-      results of ace(): logLik(), deviance(), AIC(), and anova().
-
-    o The plot method of phymltest has two new arguments: `main' to
-      change the title, and `col' to control the colour of the
-      segments showing the AIC values.
-
-    o ace() has a new argument `ip' that gives the initial values used
-      in the ML estimation with discrete characters (see the examples
-      in ?ace). This function now returns a matrix giving the indices
-      of the estimated rates when analysing discrete characters.
-
-    o nodelabels() and tiplabels() have a new argument `pie' to
-      represent proportions, with any number of categories, as
-      piecharts. The use of the option `thermo' has been improved:
-      there is now no limitation on the number of categories.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o mlphylo() did not work with more than two partitions: this is
-      fixed.
-
-    o root() failed if the proposed outgroup was already an outgroup
-      in the tree: this is fixed.
-
-    o The `col' argument in nodelabels() and tiplabels() was not
-      correctly passed when `text' was used: this is fixed.
-
-    o Two bugs were fixed in mlphylo(): parameters were not always
-      correctly output, and the estimation failed in some cases.
-
-    o plot.phylo() was stuck when given a tree with a single tip: this
-      is fixed and a message error is now returned.
-
-    o An error was corrected in the help page of gammaStat regarding
-      the calculation of P-values.
-
-    o Using gls() could crash R when the number of species in the tree
-      and in the variables were different: this is fixed.
-
-
-
-    		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.8-2
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function mlphylo() fits a phylogenetic tree by maximum
-      likelihood from DNA sequences. Its companion function DNAmodel()
-      is used to define the substitution model which may include
-      partitioning. There are methods for logLik(), deviance(), and
-      AIC(), and the summary() method has been extended to display in
-      a friendly way the results of this model fitting. Currently, the
-      functionality is limited to estimating the substitution and
-      associated parameters and computing the likelihood.
-
-    o The new function drop1.compar.gee (used as, e.g., drop1(m))
-      tests for single effects in GEE-based comparative method. A
-      warning message is printed if there is not enough degrees of
-      freedom.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o An error message was sometimes issued by plot.multi.tree(),
-      though with no consequence.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.8-1
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o There is a new plot method for lists of trees (objects of class
-      "multi.tree"): it calls plot.phylo() internally and is
-      documented on the same help page.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o A bug was fixed in the C code that analyzes bipartitions: this
-      has impact on several functions like prop.part, prop.clades,
-      boot.phylo, or consensus.
-
-    o root() did not work correctly when the specified outgroup had
-      more than one element: this is fixed.
-
-    o dist.dna() sometimes returned a warning inappropriately: this
-      has been corrected.
-
-    o If the distance object given to nj() had no rownames, nj()
-      returned a tree with no tip labels: it now returns tips labelled
-      "1", "2", ..., corresponding to the row numbers.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o nj() has been slightly changed so that tips with a zero distance
-      are first aggregated with zero-lengthed branches; the usual NJ
-      procedure is then performed on a distance matrix without 0's.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.8
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function chronopl() estimates dates using the penalized
-      likelihood method by Sanderson (2002; Mol. Biol. Evol., 19:101).
-
-    o The new function consensus() calculates the consensus tree of a
-      list of trees.
-
-    o The new function evolve.phylo() simulates the evolution of
-      continuous characters along a phylogeny under a Brownian model.
-
-    o The new plot method for objects of class "ancestral" displays a
-      tree together with ancestral values, as returned by the above
-      function.
-
-    o The new function as.phylo.formula() returns a phylogeny from a
-      set of nested taxonomic variables given as a formula.
-
-    o The new function read.caic() reads trees in CAIC format.
-
-    o The new function tiplabels() allows to add labels to the tips
-      of a tree using text or plotting symbols in a flexible way.
-
-    o The new function unroot() unroots a phylogeny.
-
-    o multi2di() has a new option, `random', which specifies whether
-      to resolve the multichotomies randomly (the default) or not.
-
-    o prop.part() now returns an object of class "prop.part" for which
-      there are print (to display a partition in a more friendly way)
-      and summary (to extract the numbers) methods.
-
-    o plot.phylo() has a new option, `show.tip.label', specifying
-      whether to print the labels of the tips. The default is TRUE.
-
-    o The code of nj() has been replaced by a faster C code: it is now
-      about 10, 25, and 40 times faster for 50, 100, and 200 taxa,
-      respectively.
-
-    o write.nexus() now writes whether a tree is rooted or not.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o Two bugs have been fixed in root(): unrooted trees are now
-      handled corretly, and node labels are now output normally.
-
-    o A bug was fixed in phymltest(): the executable couldn't be found
-      in some cases.
-
-    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: an error is now
-      returned.
-
-    o A small bug was fixed in dist.dna() where the gamma correction
-      was not always correctly dispatched.
-
-    o plot.phylo() plotted correctly the root edge only when the tree
-      was plotted rightwards: this works now for all directions.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o dist.taxo() has been renamed as weight.taxo().
-
-    o dist.phylo() has been replaced by the method cophenetic.phylo().
-
-    o Various error and warning messages have been improved.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.7
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function ace() estimates ancestral character states for
-      continuous characters (with ML, GLS, and contrasts methods), and
-      discrete characters (with ML only) for any number of states.
-
-    o The new function compar.ou() fits the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck model
-      of directional evolution for continuous characters. The user
-      specifies the node(s) of the tree where the character optimum
-      changes.
-
-    o The new function is.rooted() tests whether a tree (of class
-      "phylo") is rooted.
-
-    o The new function rcoal() generates random ultrametric trees with
-      the possibility to specify the function that generates the
-      inter-nodes distances.
-
-    o The new function mrca() gives for all pairs of tips in a tree
-      (and optionally nodes too) the most recent common ancestor.
-
-    o nodelabels() has a new option `thermo' to plot proportions (up
-      to three classes) on the nodes of a tree.
-
-    o rtree() has been improved: it can now generate rooted or
-      unrooted trees, and the mathematical function that generates the
-      branch lengths may be specified by the user. The tip labels may
-      be given directly in the call to rtree. The limit cases (n = 2,
-      3) are now handled correctly.
-
-    o dist.topo() has a new argument `method' with two choices: "PH85"
-      for Penny and Henny's method (already available before and now
-      the default), and "BHV01" for the geometric distance by Billera
-      et al. (2001, Adv. Appl. Math. 27:733).
-
-    o write.tree() has a new option, `digits', which specifies the
-      number of digits to be printed in the Newick tree. By default
-      digits = 10. The numbers are now always printed in decimal form
-      (i.e., 1.0e-1 is now avoided).
-
-    o dist.dna() can now compute the raw distances between pairs of
-      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 is
-      `full = FALSE'.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o Several bugs were fixed in all.equal.phylo().
-
-    o dist.dna() did not handle correctly gaps ("-") in alignments:
-      they are now considered as missing data.
-
-    o rotate() did not work if the tips were not ordered: this is
-      fixed.
-
-    o mantel.test() returned NA in some special cases: this is fixed
-      and the function has been improved and is now faster.
-
-    o A bug was fixed in diversi.gof() where the calculation of A� was
-      incorrect.
-
-    o cherry() did not work correctly under some OSs (mainly Linux):
-      this is fixed.
-
-    o is.binary.tree() has been modified so that it works with both
-      rooted and unrooted trees.
-
-    o The documentation of theta.s() was not correct: this has been
-      fixed.
-
-    o plot.mst() did not work correctly: this is fixed.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.6
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function dist.topo() computes the topological distances
-      between two trees.
-
-    o The new function boot.phylo() performs a bootstrap analysis on
-      phylogeny estimation.
-
-    o The new functions prop.part() and prop.clades() analyse
-      bipartitions from a series of trees.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o read.GenBank() now uses the EFetch utility of NCBI instead of
-      the usual Web interface: it is now much faster (e.g., 12 times
-      faster to retrieve 8 sequences, 37 times for 60 sequences).
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o Several bugs were fixed in read.dna().
-
-    o Several bugs were fixed in diversi.time().
-
-    o is.binary.tree() did not work correctly if the tree has no edge
-      lengths: this is fixed.
-
-    o drop.tip() did not correctly propagated the `node.label' of a
-      tree: this is fixed.
-
-
-
- 		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.5
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o Two new functions, as.matching.phylo() and as.phylo.matching(),
-      convert objects between the classes "phylo" and "matching". The
-      latter implements the representation of binary trees introduced by
-      Diaconis and Holmes (1998; PNAS 95:14600). The generic function
-      as.matching() has been introduced as well.
-
-    o Two new functions, multi2di() and di2multi(), allow to resolve
-      and collapse multichotomies with branches of length zero.
-
-    o The new function nuc.div() computes the nucleotide diversity
-      from a sample a DNA sequences.
-
-    o dist.dna() has been completely rewritten with a much faster
-      (particularly for large data sets) C code. Eight models are
-      available: JC69, K80, F81, K81, F84, T92, TN93, and GG95 (the
-      option `method' has been renamed `model'). Computation of variance
-      is available for all models. A gamma-correction is possible for
-      JC69, K80, F81, and TN93. There is a new option, pairwise.deletion,
-      to remove sites with missing data on a pairwise basis. The option
-      `GCcontent' has been removed.
-
-    o read.GenBank() has a new option (species.names) which specifies
-      whether to return the species names of the organisms in addition
-      to the accession numbers of the sequences (this is the default
-      behaviour).
-
-    o write.nexus() can now write several trees in the same NEXUS file.
-
-    o drop.tip() has a new option `root.edge' that allows to specify the
-      new root edge if internal branches are trimmed.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o as.phylo.hclust() failed if some labels had parentheses: this
-      is fixed.
-
-    o Several bugs were fixed in all.equal.phylo(). This function now
-      returns the logical TRUE if the trees are identical but with
-      different representations (a report was printed previously).
-
-    o read.GenBank() did not correctly handle ambiguous base codes:
-      this is fixed.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o birthdeath() now returns an object of class "birthdeath" for
-      which there is a print method.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.4
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function nj() performs phylogeny estimation with the
-      neighbor-joining method of Saitou and Nei (1987; Mol. Biol.
-      Evol., 4:406).
-
-    o The new function which.edge() identifies the edges of a tree
-      that belong to a group specified as a set of tips.
-
-    o The new function as.phylo.phylog() converts an object of class
-      "phylog" (from the package ade4) into an object of class
-      "phylo".
-
-    o The new function axisPhylo() draws axes on the side of a
-      phylogeny plot.
-
-    o The new function howmanytrees() calculates the number of trees
-      in different cases and giving a number of tips.
-
-    o write.tree() has a new option `multi.line' (TRUE by default) to
-      write a Newick tree on several lines rather than on a single
-      line.
-
-    o The functionalities of zoom() have been extended. Several
-      subtrees can be visualized at the same time, and they are marked
-      on the main tree with colors. The context of the subtrees can be
-      marked with the option `subtree' (see below).
-
-    o drop.tip() has a new option `subtree' (FALSE by default) which
-      specifies whether to output in the tree how many tips have been
-      deleted and where.
-
-    o The arguments of add.scale.bar() have been redefined and have
-      now default values (see ?add.scale.bar for details). This
-      function now works even if the plotted tree has no edge length.
-
-    o plot.phylo() can now plot radial trees, but this does not take
-      edge lengths into account.
-
-    o In plot.phylo() with `type = "phylogram"', if the values of
-      `edge.color' and `edge.width' are identical for sister-branches,
-      they are propagated to the vertical line that link them.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o Repeated calls to as.phylo.hclust() or as.hclust.phylo() made R
-      crashing. This is fixed.
-
-    o In plot.phylo(), the options `edge.color' and `edge.width' are
-      now properly recycled; their default values are now "black" and
-      1, respectively.
-
-    o A bug has been fixed in write.nexus().
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o The function node.depth.edgelength() has been removed and
-      replaced by a C code.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.3-1
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function nodelabels() allows to add labels to the nodes
-      of a tree using text or plotting symbols in a flexible way.
-
-    o In plot.phylo() the arguments `x.lim' and `y.lim' can now be two
-      numeric values specifying the lower and upper limits on the x-
-      and y-axes. This allows to leave some space on any side of the
-      tree. If a single value is given, this is taken as the upper
-      limit (as before).
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.3
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function phymltest() calls the software PHYML and fits
-      28 models of DNA sequence evolution. There are a print method to
-      display likelihood and AIC values, a summary method to compute
-      the hierarchical likelihood ratio tests, and a plot method to
-      display graphically the AIC values of each model.
-
-    o The new function yule.cov() fits the Yule model with covariates,
-      a model where the speciation rate is affected by several species
-      traits through a generalized linear model. The parameters are
-      estimated by maximum likelihood.
-
-    o Three new functions, corBrownian(), corGrafen(), and
-      corMartins(), compute the expected correlation structures among
-      species given a phylogeny under different models of evolution.
-      These can be used for GLS comparative phylogenetic methods (see
-      the examples). There are coef() and corMatrix() methods and an
-      Initialize.corPhyl() function associated.
-
-    o The new function compar.cheverud() implements Cheverud et al.'s
-      (1985; Evolution 39:1335) phylogenetic comparative method.
-
-    o The new function varcomp() estimates variance components; it has
-      a plot method.
-
-    o Two new functions, panel.superpose.correlogram() and
-      plot.correlogramList(), allow to plot several phylogenetic
-      correlograms.
-
-    o The new function node.leafnumber() computes the number of leaves
-      of a subtree defined by a particular node.
-
-    o The new function node.sons() gets all tags of son nodes from a
-      given parent node.
-
-    o The new function compute.brlen() computes the branch lengths of
-      a tree according to a specified method.
-
-    o plot.phylo() has three new options: "cex" controls the size of
-      the (tip and node) labels (thus it is no more needed to change
-      the global graphical parameter), "direction" which allows to
-      plot the tree rightwards, leftwards, upwards, or downwards, and
-      "y.lim" which sets the upper limit on the y-axis.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o Some functions which try to match tip labels and names of
-      additional data (e.g. vector) are likely to fail if there are
-      typing or syntax errors. If both series of names do not perfectly
-      match, they are ignored and a warning message is now issued.
-      These functions are bd.ext, compar.gee, pic. Their help pages
-      have been clarified on this point.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.2-7
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function root() reroots a phylogenetic tree with respect
-      to a specified outgroup.
-
-    o The new function rotate() rotates an internal branch of a tree.
-
-    o In plot.phylo(), the new argument "lab4ut" (labels for unrooted
-      trees) controls the display of the tip labels in unrooted trees.
-      This display has been greatly improved: the tip labels are now not
-      expected to overlap with the tree (particularly if lab4ut =
-      "axial"). In all cases, combining appropriate values of "lab4ut"
-      and the font size (via "par(cex = )") should result in readable
-      unrooted trees. See ?plot.phylo for some examples.
-
-    o In drop.tip(), the argument `tip' can now be numeric or character.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o drop.tip() did not work correctly with trees with no branch
-      lengths: this is fixed.
-
-    o A bug in plot.phylo(..., type = "unrooted") made some trees being
-      plotted with some line crossings: this is now fixed.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.2-6
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o Six new functions (Moran.I, correlogram.formula, discrete.dist,
-      correlogram.phylo, dist.taxo, plot.correlogram) have been added
-      to implement comparative methods with an autocorrelation approach.
-
-    o A new data set describing some life history traits of Carnivores
-      has been included.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o A fix was made on mcmc.popsize() to conform to R 2.0.0.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o When plotting a tree with plot.phylo(), the new default of the
-      option `label.offset' is now 0, so the labels are always visible.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.2-5
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function bd.ext() fits a birth-death model with combined
-      phylogenetic and taxonomic data, and estimates the corresponding
-      speciation and extinction rates.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o The package gee is no more required by ape but only suggested
-      since only the function compar.gee() calls gee.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.2-4
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o Four new functions (mcmc.popsize, extract.popsize, plot.popsize,
-      and lines.popsize) implementing a new approach for inferring the
-      demographic history from genealogies using a reversible jump
-      MCMC have been introduced.
-
-    o The unit of time in the skyline plot and in the new plots can
-      now be chosen to be actual years, rather than substitutions.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.2-3
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function rtree() generates a random binary tree with or
-      without branch lengths.
-
-    o Two new functions for drawing lineages-through-time (LTT) plots
-      are provided: ltt.lines() adds a LTT curve to an existing plot,
-      and mltt.plot() does a multiple LTT plot giving several trees as
-      arguments (see `?ltt.plot' for details).
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o Some taxon names made R crashing when calling as.phylo.hclust():
-      this is fixed.
-
-    o dist.dna() returned an error with two identical DNA sequences
-      (only using the Jukes-Cantor method returned 0): this is fixed.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o The function dist.phylo() has been re-written using a different
-      algorithm: it is now about four times faster.
-
-    o The code of branching.times() has been improved: it is now about
-      twice faster.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.2-2
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The new function seg.sites() finds the segregating sites in a
-      sample of DNA sequences.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o A bug introduced in read.tree() and in read.nexus() with version
-      1.2-1 was fixed.
-
-    o A few errors were corrected and a few examples were added in the
-      help pages.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.2-1
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o plot.phylo() can now draw the edge of the root of a tree if it
-      has one (see the new option `root.edge', its default is FALSE).
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o A bug was fixed in read.nexus(): files with semicolons inside
-      comment blocks were not read correctly.
-
-    o The behaviour of read.tree() and read.nexus() was corrected so
-      that tree files with badly represented root edges (e.g., with
-      an extra pair of parentheses, see the help pages for details)
-      are now correctly represented in the object of class "phylo";
-      a warning message is now issued.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.2
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o plot.phylo() has been completely re-written and offers several
-      new functionalities. Three types of trees can now be drawn:
-      phylogram (as previously), cladogram, and unrooted tree; in
-      all three types the branch lengths can be drawn using the edge
-      lengths of the phylogeny or not (e.g., if the latter is absent).
-      The vertical position of the nodes can be adjusted with two
-      choices (see option `node.pos'). The code has been re-structured,
-      and two new functions (potentially useful for developpers) are
-      documented separately: node.depth.edgelength() and node.depth();
-      see the respective help pages for details.
-
-    o The new function zoom() allows to explore very large trees by
-      focusing on a small portion of it.
-
-    o The new function yule() fits by maximum likelihood the Yule model
-      (birth-only process) to a phylogenetic tree.
-
-    o Support for writing DNA sequences in FASTA format has been
-      introduced in write.dna() (support for reading sequences in
-      this format was introduced in read.dna() in version 1.1-2).
-      The function has been completely re-written, fixing some bugs
-      (see below); the default behaviour is no more to display the
-      sequences on the standard output. Several options have been
-      introduced to control the sequence printing in a flexible
-      way. The help page has been extended.
-
-    o A new data set is included: a supertree of bats in NEXUS format.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o In theta.s(), the default of the option `variance' has
-      been changed to `FALSE' (as was indicated in the help page).
-
-    o Several bugs were fixed in the code of all.equal.phylo().
-
-    o Several bugs were fixed in write.dna(), particularly this
-      function did not work with `format = "interleaved"'.
-
-    o Various errors were corrected in the help pages.
-
-
-OTHER CHANGES
-
-    o The argument names of as.hclust.phylo() have been changed
-      from "(phy)" to "(x, ...)" to conform to the definition of
-      the corresponding generic function.
-
-    o gamma.stat() has been renamed gammaStat() to avoid confusion
-      since gamma() is a generic function.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.1-3
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o base.freq() previously did not return a value of 0 for
-      bases absent in the data (e.g., a vector of length 3 was
-      returned if one base was absent). This is now fixed (a
-      vector of length 4 is always returned).
-
-    o Several bugs were fixed in read.nexus(), including that this
-      function did not work in this absence of a "TRANSLATE"
-      command in the NEXUS file, and that the commands were
-      case-sensitive.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.1-2
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The Tamura and Nei (1993) model of DNA distance is now implemented
-      in dist.dna(): five models are now available in this function.
-
-    o A new data set is included: a set of 15 sequences of the
-      cytochrome b mitochondrial gene of the woodmouse (Apodemus
-      sylvaticus).
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o A bug in read.nexus() was fixed.
-
-    o read.dna() previously did not work correctly in most cases.
-      The function has been completely re-written and its help page
-      has been considerably extended (see ?read.dna for details).
-      Underscores (_) in taxon names are no more replaced with
-      spaces (this behaviour was undocumented).
-
-    o A bug was fixed in write.dna().
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.1-1
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o A bug in read.tree() introduced in APE 1.1 was fixed.
-
-    o A bug in compar.gee() resulted in an error when trying to fit
-      a model with `family = "binomial"'. This is now fixed.
-
-
-
- 		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.1
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The Klastorin (1982) method as suggested by Misawa and Tajima
-      (2000, Mol. Biol. Evol. 17:1879-1884) for classifying genes
-      on the basis of phylogenetic trees has been implemented (see
-      the function klastorin()).
-
-    o Functions have been added to convert APE's "phylo" objects in
-      "hclust" cluster objects and vice versa (see the help page of
-      as.phylo for details).
-
-    o Three new functions, ratogram(), chronogram() and NPRS.criterion(),
-      are introduced for the estimation of absolute evolutionary rates
-      (ratogram) and dated clock-like trees (chronogram) from
-      phylogenetic trees using the non-parametric rate smoothing approach
-      by MJ Sanderson (1997, Mol. Biol. Evol. 14:1218-1231).
-
-    o A summary method is now provided printing a summary information on a
-      phylogenetic tree with, for instance, `summary(tree)'.
-
-    o The behaviour of read.tree() was changed so that all spaces and
-      tabulations in tree files are now ignored. Consequently, spaces in tip
-      labels are no more allowed. Another side effect is that read.nexus()
-      now does not replace the underscores (_) in tip labels with spaces
-      (this behaviour was undocumented).
-
-    o The function plot.phylo() has a new option (`underscore') which
-      specifies whether the underscores in tip labels should be written on
-      the plot as such or replaced with spaces (the default).
-
-    o The function birthdeath() now computes 95% confidence intervals of
-      the estimated parameters using profile likelihood.
-
-    o Three new data sets are included: a gene tree estimated from 36
-      landplant rbcL sequences, a gene tree estimated from 32 opsin
-      sequences, and a gene tree for 50 BRCA1 mammalian sequences.
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o A bug was fixed in dist.gene() where nothing was returned.
-
-    o A bug in plot.mst() was fixed.
-
-    o A bug in vcv.phylo() resulted in false correlations when the
-      option `cor = TRUE' was used (now fixed).
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 1.0
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o Two new functions, read.dna() and write.dna(), read/write in a file
-      DNA sequences in interleaved or in sequential format.
-
-    o Two new functions, read.nexus() and write.nexus(), read/write trees
-      in a NEXUS file.
-
-    o The new function bind.tree() allows to bind two trees together,
-      possibly handling root edges to give internal branches.
-
-    o The new function drop.tip() removes the tips in a phylogenetic tree,
-      and trims (or not) the corresponding internal branches.
-
-    o The new function is.ultrametric() tests if a tree is ultrametric.
-
-    o The function plot.phylo() has more functionalities such as drawing the
-      branches with different colours and/or different widths, showing the
-      node labels, controling the position and font of the labels, rotating
-      the labels, and controling the space around the plot.
-
-    o The function read.tree() can now read trees with no branch length,
-      such as "(a,b),c);". Consequently, the element `edge.length' in
-      objects of class "phylo" is now optional.
-
-    o The function write.tree() has a new default behaviour: if the default
-      for the option `file' is used (i.e. file = ""), then a variable of
-      mode character containing the tree in Newick format is returned which
-      can thus be assigned (e.g., tree <- write.tree(phy)).
-
-    o The function read.tree() has a new argument `text' which allows
-      to read the tree in a variable of mode character.
-
-    o A new data set is included: the phylogenetic relationships among
-      the orders of birds from Sibley and Ahlquist (1990).
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 0.2-1
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o Several bugs were fixed in the help pages.
-
-
-
-		CHANGES IN APE VERSION 0.2
-
-
-NEW FEATURES
-
-    o The function write.tree() writes phylogenetic trees (objects of class
-      "phylo") in an ASCII file using the Newick parenthetic format.
-
-    o The function birthdeath() fits a birth-death model to branching times
-      by maximum likelihood, and estimates the corresponding speciation and
-      extinction rates.
-
-    o The function scale.bar() adds a scale bar to a plot of a phylogenetic
-      tree.
-
-    o The function is.binary.tree() tests whether a phylogeny is binary.
-
-    o Two generic functions, coalescent.intervals() and collapsed.intervals(),
-      as well as some methods are introduced.
-
-    o Several functions, including some generics and methods, for computing
-      skyline plot estimates (classic and generalized) of effective
-      population size through time are introduced and replace the function
-      skyline.plot() in version 0.1.
-
-    o Two data sets are now included: the phylogenetic relationships among
-      the families of birds from Sibley and Ahlquist (1990), and an
-      estimated clock-like phylogeny of HIV sequences sampled in the
-      Democratic Republic of Congo.
-
-
-DEPRECATED & DEFUNCT
-
-    o The function skyline.plot() in ape 0.1 has been deprecated and
-      replaced by more elaborate functions (see above).
-
-
-BUG FIXES
-
-    o Two important bugs were fixed in plot.phylo(): phylogenies with
-      multichotomies not at the root or not with only terminal branches,
-      and phylogenies with a single node (i.e. only terminal branches)
-      did not plot. These trees should be plotted correctly now.
-
-    o Several bugs were fixed in diversi.time() in the computation of
-      AICs and LRTs.
-
-    o Various errors were corrected in the help pages.
