Measures of clade confidence do not correlate with accuracy of phylogenetic trees.

PLoS computational biology - 16 Mar 2007

Hall Barry G, Salipante Stephen J

Abstract excerpt

Metrics of phylogenetic tree reliability, such as parametric bootstrap percentages or Bayesian posterior probabilities, represent internal measures of the topological reproducibility of a phylogenetic tree, while the recently introduced aLRT (approximate likelihood ratio test) assesses the likeli...
