Yue-Clayton similarity index (2005) is an interesting emerging similarity measure used for microbial communities.

Consider adding to mia, or even better, contributing to vegan.

It appears that this index has been suggested already by Wishart (1969) or potentially even earlier, and can be implemented with vegan::designdist. See #vegan/issue525.
