Figure 5

Phylogeny of tunicates inferred from a reduced 18S rRNA dataset (88 taxa and 1675 sites). Bayesian majority-rule consensus tree obtained under the CAT-GTR+Γ mixture model implemented in PhyloBayes after exclusion of the fast-evolving Aplousobranchia species. Support values obtained using different reconstruction approaches are indicated at nodes in the following order: Bayesian posterior probabilities (PP) under: 1. PP1 = CAT-GTR+Γ (PhyloBayes)/2. PP2 = RNA6A+Γ+I and TN93+Γ+I (Phase)/3. PP3 = GTR+Γ+I (MrBayes)/and 4. BP = Maximum Likelihood bootstrap percentages (BP) under TN93+Γ+I (PAUP*). Support values are displayed when PP ≥ 0.95 and BP ≥ 65. Dots indicate nodes for which all four reconstruction methods agree and provide PP ≥ 0.95 and BP ≥ 65. Newly obtained sequences are underlined, including an additional one from Botryllus schlosseri marked with an asterisk.
