Extended Data Table 2 Model performance of the phylogenetic reconstructions using different methods for branch length reconstruction and different transition rates

From: Pterosaur melanosomes support signalling functions for early feathers

  1. Parameters shown are the number of variables (nvar), log-likelihood (Lnl), probability of scales being ancestral (scales), probability of feather-like structures being present (filaments), Akaike Information Criterion (AIC), second order bias correction of AIC (AICc) and relative weight of the corrected AIC (AICc_wt). * mbl-ARD was calculated using a different method (make.simmap) and was not used in the weighted AICc calculations.
