Here is the companion website that explains how to do the examples using R:

I hacked some of the examples from this website for the R instructions in this guide.
An excellent text for learning stats and for reference is Whitlock, M.C. and D. Schluter. 2015. The Analysis of Biological Data. Roberts and Company Publishers, Greenwood Village, Colorado. (Second edition). The website associated with the book:
http://whitlockschluter.zoology.ubc.ca/
also includes R scripts for the examples in the book.
The library has some resources on using R for non-biology applications, including graphing:
