PODS results for estimation of Ω under varying values of β for the 18 taxon-pair configuration. Scatterplots of true versus estimated values of Ω for 100 PODS across different buffering regimes for the 18 taxon-pair data configuration. PODS were simulated and analyzed with a uniform prior on Ψ and sorted summary statistics using reference tables composed of 3 × 10⁶ samples from the prior. The dashed line is the identity line, and the red line is a simple linear regression of estimated Ω onto true Ω. a β = 0 b β = 0.01 c β = 0.05 d β = 0.1
