Evaluating Phylogenetic Informativeness as a Predictor of Phylogenetic Signal for Metazoan, Fungal, and Mammalian Phylogenomic Data Sets

Figure 4

Phylogenetic informativeness profiles for simulated amino acid and DNA alignments, on the same time scale as in Figure 1 (973 Myr period). Each of the 10 different colors represents a different mean rate, from 0.0001 (slowest, bottom) to 0.001 (fastest, top) substitutions per site per million years. Dashed lines are profiles from alignments simulated with gamma rate heterogeneity (𝛼=0.5,1,2, and 3).
