| # Permutations | 99/999/9,999 | 99/999 | 99/9,999 | 999/9,999 | ||||
| Tree | W | U | W | U | W | U | W | U |

The table outlines the impact of the number of permutations on the distribution of significant and insignificant links for distinct p-values. Column (99/999/9,999) indicates the number of links that have a different significance than at least one of the other runs.
