Exploration of potential non-phylogenetic signals biasing inference. Gene-wise δ values obtained by constraining acroechinoid (top) and clypeasteroid (bottom) monophyly are shown using dot size and color (as in Fig. 4, see legend). Root-to-tip variance axs were truncated to show the region in which most data points lie. The relative support for these topological alternatives does not depend on the four potentially biasing factors explored, as seen by the lack of clustering of genes with similar δ values along the axes
