A phylogenetic tree with shade tolerance mapped was assembled from literature on plant species diversification (Wikstrom et al., 2001; Magallon and Sanderson, 2005; Gernandt et al., 2008). Branch lengths of the phylogenetic tree indicate time since divergence from a shared ancestor in units of million years.
