Diversification in Monkeyflowers: An Investigation of the Effects of Elevation and Floral Color in the Genus Mimulus

Table 1

Results of BiSSE, GeoSSE, and MuSSE analyses of RO phenotype and high elevation in Mimulus. In the BiSSE/GeoSSE analysis, we use the notation of non-RO = 0 and RO = 1, low elevation = 0, and high elevation = 1 (and the GeoSSE analysis allows for third category for species having ranges that span low and high elevation). In the MuSSE analysis, trait combinations use the following notation: 1: low elevation, no-RO; 2: low elevation, RO; 3: high elevation, no-RO; 4: high elevation, RO. We test whether the evolution of the RO phenotype depends on the background of elevation (does differ from or from , etc.). * and **  <  0.001.
