动机：随着共生物种群落的系统发育和性状数据的日益可用，需要一种集成生态和进化分析的软件。功能：Phylocom计算群落内系统发育群落结构和性状相似性的众多指标。假设检验是使用几个空模型实现的。在同一框架内，它测量系统发育信号和物种性状的相关进化。一系列实用功能允许社区和系统发育数据操作，树和性状生成，并集成到科学工作流程中。
Motivation: The increasing availability of phylogenetic and trait data for communities of co-occurring species has created a need for software that integrates ecological and evolutionary analyses.Capabilities: Phylocom calculates numerous metrics of phylogenetic community structure and trait similarity within communities. Hypothesis testing is implemented using several null models. Within the same framework, it measures phylogenetic signal and correlated evolution for species traits. A range of utility functions allow community and phylogenetic data manipulation, tree and trait generation, and integration into scientific workflows.
