Bayes factor analyses of marginal likelihoods
Log-likelihood, lnL | SD | Δ2lnL | |
All data | |||
Outgroup constrained | −30,842.156 | 8.32 | −245.6 |
Relaxed clock | −30,719.351 | 12.30 | 0.0 |
Strict clock | −30,843.256 | 9.46 | −247.8 |

Outgroup constrained | −11,715.948 | 9.46 | −196.0 |
Relaxed clock | −11,617.934 | 11.29 | 0.0 |
Strict clock | −11,997.605 | 9.36 | −759.4 |
Analyses of marginal tree likelihood distributions with Bayes factors suggest that a relaxed clock model explains the data better (higher lnL) than either a strict clock or forcing Leucocytozoon to an outgroup position.
