Abstract excerpt
The Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) process plays a major role in the analysis of the evolution of phenotypic traits along phylogenies.

However, evolving species may interact through various ecological process and also exchange genes especially in plants. This is particularly true if we want to...
