version: 2.1.4
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.motmot
abstract: Functions for fitting models of trait evolution on phylogenies for continuous
  traits. The majority of functions are described in Thomas and Freckleton (2012)
  <https://doi.org/10.1111/j.2041-210X.2011.00132.x> and allow tests of variation
  in the rates of trait evolution.
