Fig. 4

Density plots of four alignment metrics for both datasets. Alignments created from low-quality transcriptome assemblies have similar percentages of constant and parsimony-informative sites, but higher compositional bias and ambiguity when compared to alignments from high-quality assemblies. a Percentage of constant sites in each partition alignment. b Percentage of parsimony-informative sites in each partition alignment. c Number of sequences that fail the composition test, normalized by partition alignment length. d Number of sequences that contain more than 50% gaps/ambiguity in each partition alignment
