Figure 3From: Bird evolution: testing the Metaves clade with six new mitochondrial genomesRooted tree of modern birds based on complete mitochondrial genomes. Evolutionary relationships of Neoaves based on Maximum Likelihood analysis of 41 complete mtDNA sequences using a Galloanserae outgroup. Members of Metaves (Fain and Houde 2004) are indicated with black spots. Bayesian probabilities of 1.0 are indicated on branches as (*), branches with probabilities less than 0.99 not marked.Back to article page
