Table 1 Simulation Results. Simulation results for the reconstruction of a 20 taxa tree over a range of θ values and numbers of genes. For all parameter combinations 1000 replicates were performed. Numbers reflect the percentage of correctly inferred species trees. Dashes indicate simulations that were not run due to their very low levels of congruent gene trees. TCM is the Triple Construction Method and MRe is Majority Rule Extended.
