Values were obtained with a multiple variance Brownian motion (mvBM) approach and represent the number of times the amount of change per branch is greater or smaller than observed in simulated constant-rate Brownian motion (BM) models. Values smaller than 1 indicate less change than expected under a neutral model. Values greater than 1 indicate more change than expected under a neutral model. Branches showing the greatest amount of evolutionary change for each variable are shown in bold.
