iteRates: An R Package for Implementing a Parametric Rate Comparison on Phylogenetic Trees

Patterns of diversification rate variation detected in phylogenetic hypotheses are frequently used to infer historical, ecological, and evolutionary processes. The parametric rate comparison (PRC) is a method for detecting rate variation in trees that models branch lengths as random variables drawn...
