Table 1. Mismatch distribution analysis (MDA) of cpDNA sequence data for three broadleaved evergreen tree species.
| Regions | τ | t (y) | Observed modality of mismatch distribution | SSD | P | HRag | P |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| C. tibetana | 0.625 (0–3.438) | 9,600 (0–53,000) | unimodal | 0.023 | 0.251 | 0.040 | 0.640 |
| M. thunbergii | 0.438 (0–3.828) | 3,700 (0–33,000) | unimodal | 0.009 | 0.544 | 0.042 | 0.822 |
| S. superba | 0.082 (0–1.458) | NC | bimodal | 0.188 | 0.040 | 0.491 | 0.020 |
| west | 0.082 (0–1.547) | 6,100 (0–115,100) | unimodal | 0.051 | 0.231 | 0.178 | 0.517 |
| east | 0.844 (0.717–1.045) | NC | bimodal | 0.017 | 0.003 | 0.146 | 0 |
Goodness-of-fit of observed to theoretical mismatch distributions under a demographic expansion model60 are tested with the sum of squared deviations (SSD) and raggedness index (HRag). Upper and lower 95% confidence limits around estimates of τ, and associated ranges of t (in years bp) are in parentheses.
NC, not calculated.
