The Impact of Reconstruction Methods, Phylogenetic Uncertainty and Branch Lengths on Inference of Chromosome Number Evolution in American Daisies (Melampodium, Asteraceae). by Jamie McCann, Gerald M Schneeweiss, Gerald M Schneeweiss, Tod F Stuessy, Jose L Villaseñor, Hanna Weiss-Schneeweiss

“…Therefore, reliance on single trees, such as the MCC tree, is strongly discouraged and model averaging, taking both phylogenetic and model uncertainty into account, is recommended. For studying chromosome number evolution, dedicated models implemented in the program ChromEvol and ordered maximum parsimony may be most appropriate. …”
