Correlations between protein alignment statistics and tree features. For trees inferred from alignments of orthologs for each of the individual 47 test proteins (Additional file 3), the number of non-consensual nodes in each tree was plotted against either the number of aligned (a) or variable (b) positions per alignment, or against the averaged posterior probabilities of all nodes in the tree (c). Averaged posterior probabilities were also plotted against the number of variable positions per alignment (d). Regression lines for all plots are shown with their equations and coefficients of determination. Correlations between the variables were determined by Spearman rank order and P-values are shown. All variables are listed in Additional File 2, sheet 4
