R help - Oct 2007 - Multivariate regression tree: problems with surrogate splits

R helpers,

I am working with the R program performing multivariate regression trees (MRT).
I have a matrix with species and environmental variables saved as a CSV file
(sprot_matrix.csv), I have 42 species and 8 environmental variables
(SECCHI+PH+TA+PTOT+NTOT+CHLA+AREA+ MEANDEP) for 104 samples

after performing the analysis (MRT) I asked for the summary but I didn't get
the surrogate splits, only the information for the primary splits (the secuence
of commands I used is pasted at the end of the email). I would like to know how
to get the information about the surrogate splits, please let me know any ideas.

Thank you very much in advanced,

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Here is the sequence of commands I used 

 

sprot_matrix=read.csv("sprot_matrix.csv", row.names=1)

sprot_matrix

 

 

require(mvpart)

 

 

mrtsprot_matrix <-

mvpart(data.matrix(sprot_matrix [,1:47]) ~SECCHI+PH+TA+PTOT+NTOT+CHLA+AREA+
MEANDEP,
sprot_matrix,xv="pick",xvmult=500,use.n=TRUE,all=TRUE,text.add=TRUE)
