Figure 1

Categories of intra-individual polymorphism. The large amount of uninformative (unique) and potentially misleading (homoplasious) versus meaningful (additive, shared informative) variation is illustrated. a) Discrimination of non-additive (one of the character states is missing in the whole dataset, e.g., T and Y are present, but no C) from additive polymorphisms (e.g., T, Y as well as C are present). b) Further discrimination of polymorphisms shared by two or more accessions into homoplasious or informative variation, and distribution of polymorphisms that show character additivity for all categories.
