Data from: paco: implementing Procrustean Approach to Cophylogeny in R

1. The concordance of evolutionary histories and extant species interactions provides a useful metric for addressing questions of how the structure of ecological communities is influenced by macro-evolutionary processes. 2. We introduce paco (v.0.3.1), an R package to perform Procrustean Approach to Cophylogeny. This method assesses the phylogenetic congruence, or evolutionary dependence, of two groups of interacting species using both ecological interaction networks and their phylogenetic history. 3. We demonstrate the functionality of paco through its application to empirical host-parasite and plant-pollinator communities 4. Although the package is intended to assess phylogenetic congruen…
