Figure 5. Simulated ascertainment bias against M. m. castaneus.

Figure 5

Varying proportions of M. m. castaneus specific SNPs were removed from chromosomes 18 and 19 to simulate increased ascertainment bias against this taxon. The difference in concordance factors between M. m. musculus/M. m. castaneus and M. m. castaneus/M. m. domesticus do not significantly differ at all levels of artificial bias. This indicates that recovery of a M. m. musculus/M. m. castaneus primary phylogenetic history is robust to increased ascertainment bias. Colors correspond to the three topologies. Error bars are 95% confidence intervals.
