Differences in Bremer support for 25 randomly selected nodes. Differences in Bremer support for 25 randomly selected nodes (x-axis), comparing values obtained by a simple search (saving 1 tree) with those obtained with subsequent parsimony ratchet iterations (y-axis). Vertical lines mark the average number of iterations at which 90% of the final support difference (observed after 50 iterations) are exceeded first.
