Table 7.

Percentage of the time that the true ancestor is a maximal signature, under normally distributed inversion lengths on genomes of size n = 50. Edge lengths b (to a child) and c (to an ancestor) vary from 5 to 2a while a = 5 (number of inversions to the other child). Each entry shows the exhaustive method to the left of the Bourque-like method.
