A data frame with prior MCMC samples from a divergence time estimation analysis of the family Cynodontidae using Beast2. From an original sample of 20000, these include the last 1000 samples and only preserve the columns with node ages.
Usage
data(cynodontidae.prior)Format
A data frame named cynodontidae.prior with six columns:
- Sample
ID of the generation during sampling
- mrca.date.backward.Hydrolycus.
Node ages for the node Hydrolycus
- mrca.date.backward.Cynodontidae.
Node ages for the node Cynodontidae
- mrca.date.backward.Cynodon_Hydrolycus.
Node ages for the node Cynodon-Hydrolycus
- mrca.date.backward.H_scomberoides.
Node ages for the node H. scomberoides
- mrca.date.backward.Cynodon.
Node ages for the node Cynodon
