pegas::amova()

Hi Eric,

Can you provide a minimum working example and post your session information?

The following example works for me (adapted from https://github.com/emmanuelparadis/pegas/pull/2#issue-67437033):

library('pegas')
data(microbov)
set.seed(20150409)
mic20 <- microbov[sample(nInd(microbov), 20)]
microdf <- data.frame(other(mic20))
d <- dist(tab(mic20))
amova(d ~ spe/breed, data = microdf, nperm = 0)

SPE   <<- as.factor(microdf$spe)
BREED <<- as.factor(microdf$breed)
amova(d ~ SPE/BREED, nperm = 0)

The data frame implementation works now, so you can use your strata directly instead of pulling the levels from it:

my_strata <- strata(my_data)
amova_out <- pegas::amova(dists~l2/l1, data = my_strata, nperm=nperm, is.squared=T)

Additionally, poppr has a wrapper to ADE4's implementation of AMOVA that explicitly handles strata called poppr.amova.

Cheers,
Zhian

Hi Emmanuel or others,

	I was directed here to ask a question about the amova function in pegas. Hopefully this is the right place.

	 I have been using pegas::amova() in a function that loops over a database of species to calculate amova at up to three hierarchical levels. My function recently broke, apparently due to a recent update <https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/pegas/NEWS> to Pegas - specifically this change:

   o amova() failed when the factors in the rhs of the formula were
     in a data frame. Thanks to Zhian Kamvar for the fix.

As a workaround to for pegas:amova not being able to use a dataframe of factors, I was assigning the factors to the global environment:

     level1factor<<-as.factor(sp[[l1]])
     level2factor<<-as.factor(sp[[l2]])
     amova_out<-pegas::amova(dists~level2factor/level1factor, nperm=nperm, is.squared=T)


Now, after the update, my function is throwing an error. The traceback goes

4 stop("'bin' must be numeric or a factor") 
3 FUN(X[[i]], ...) 
2 lapply(gr, tabulate) 
1 pegas::amova(dists ~ level2factor/level1factor, nperm = nperm, 
   is.squared = T) 

As far as I can tell, the objects that I am submitting to tabulate() in gr via lapply() ARE factors. 

When I try to reproduce the problem by running step by step through the pegas::amova function, everything works fine. 

So I am stumped for now. Does anyone have any ideas?


Many thanks,

Eric Crandall



PS - I?m very happy to see strata being added to genind objects in adegenet. Will these eventually be usable by pegas::amova or a similar amova function?
