Figure 4From: ITS2 data corroborate a monophyletic chlorophycean DO-group (Sphaeropleales)Phylogeny of chlorophyte ITS2 sequences and structures based on distances of a Bayesian analysis. The alignment contained 52 taxa and 479 characters. The suggested outgroup is the 'Oedogonium' clade [56]. Sequenced species are shown in bold ('Sphaeroplea' clade). Substitution models and tree distances were calculated with MrBayes [47]. Posterior probabilities are shown for basal branches. Branch thickness is dependant of Bootstrap values calculated with maximum likelihood (PAUP* with TVM+I+G, RAxML) [42, 53, 43] and maximum Parsimony (PAUP*) (see legend). Resulting parameter of performing MP are L = 1231, CI = 0.4427, HI = 0.5573, RI = 0.7264, RC = 0.3216.Back to article page
