Fig. 5From: MHC class I evolution; from Northern pike to salmonidsPhylogeny of deduced extracellular L lineage amino acid sequences. The tree with the highest log likelihood (− 6285,74) is shown. The percentage of trees in which the associated taxa clustered together is shown next to the branches. A discrete Gamma distribution was used to model evolutionary rate differences among sites [5 categories (+ G, parameter = 0,7617)]. The tree is drawn to scale, with branch lengths measured in the number of substitutions per site. There were a total of 269 positions in the final dataset. Strongly supported clusters are shown using colour shaded boxesBack to article page
