Appendix 1—table 1. Lineage tree statistics obtained from each dataset used in this work.

Mean interdivision time,$\tau$ tree variance,${\widehat{s}}_{\tau }$ CVs and all correlation coefficients ± standard deviation of the bootstrap distributions from 10,000 re-samplings with replacement. Statistics were calculated on all available cells that could be put in the required family pair (Materials and methods - ‘Data analysis and Bayesian inference of the inheritance matrix model’). Shaded datasets exhibit the cousin-mother inequality.
