Tests for the presence of a phylogenetic signal in global DNA cytosine methylation (percent of total cytosines that are methylated) and genome size (C-value) in the sample of angiosperm species studied. Statistical significance was evaluated with randomization tests.
| Phylogenetic signal index | Global DNA cytosine methylation (N = 54 species) | C-value (N = 42 species) | ||
