^*The numbers refer to local rearrangements of the tree as indicated on the corresponding figures. ^†Difference of the log-likelihoods relative to the best tree. ^‡ Standard error of difference in log-likelihood. ^§Bootstrap probability (BP) of the given tree calculated using the RELL method (resampling of estimated log-likelihoods) [44]). NA, standard error estimate is not applicable for the aximum likelihood tree.
