Substitution rates for simulated data sets with a rate shift. Substitution rate variation in simulated data sets of length 1000, 2000, and 10000 nt using random local (RLC) and relaxed lognormal (UCLN) clock models implemented in BEAST and local (HLC) and discrete (GADC) clock models implemented in Physher. Each row represents a replicate and each column represent a branch where the rightmost cell is a branch leading to latest taxon and the leftmost cell is a branch near the root. Each cell maps a branch is coloured according to its substitution rate using a gradient from blue (low rate) to red (high rate).
