H. pylori preferentially migrates between the corpus and fundus regions of the stomach. a Estimation of symmetric migration rates by marginal state reconstruction based on a global structure constructed by concatenating individual time-scaled trees (A: antrum, C: corpus, F: fundus; *: p < 0.05). Error bars represent 95% confidence intervals of the maximum likelihood estimates. b Schematic representation of the migration events distribution predicted by stochastic character mapping in relation to the stomach anatomy (blue: antrum, orange: corpus, green: fundus).
