Extended Data Fig. 6

Ancestral states shown on the main tree represent 1,000 stochastic character mappings using ML transition matrix and the time-calibrated Oreinotinus phylogeny (Fig. 1). The smaller inset tree shows ancestral state reconstructions using parsimony on the same phylogeny. Our three quantitative characters are highlighted along the tips, with trait values standardized to a mean of zero and variance of 1. Bayesian stochastic mappings that account for phylogenetic uncertainty estimated a posterior median (and HPD95% interval) of 59 (28, 114) leaf form transitions (Supplement Note 3).
