Note: SPbrS, sum of partitioned Bremer-support values over all nodes; ABS, average bootstrap support (under ML, either in combined or separate analysis); MRI, modified Rand index (indicating the agreement, at most 1.0, between sequence clustering and proposed classification). Normalization ‘per character’ was conducted per number of parsimony-informative characters for SPBrS and per number of variable characters for all other measures.
