A Large-Scale, Higher-Level, Molecular Phylogenetic Study of the Insect Order Lepidoptera (Moths and Butterflies)

Figure 4

Base-composition distance diagrams derived from analysis of the nt123 and nt123_degen1 data sets for 483 taxa.

Branching structure obtained by neighbor-join / minimum evolution analysis of Euclidean distances calculated on the proportions of each of the four nucleotide types in each species. All diagrams are drawn to the same scale, and units are 'per cent ÷ 100'. The blue shaded portions identify taxa deleted from nt 123 data subsets to explore the effect of decreased nucleotide heterogeneity on bootstrap percentages.
