Effects of Taxon Sampling in Reconstructions of Intron Evolution

Figure 2

Examples of the intron evolution reconstructed with different taxon samplig size. The intron density on each branch (in introns/kb) is color-coded according to scale in the upper left corner. Upper row: Csuros algorithm, lower row: NYK algorithm. Left column: averaged intron densities using 100 subsets of 20 species each. Right column: full set of 80 species.
