NCX proteins were categorized into five different clades depending upon the relative sequence homology of each member of the clades.
The seven clades are grouped into two or three larger clades, depending on the method of rooting, although relationships among these larger clades was not well resolved.
Due to the relatively short length of the sequences and their high diversity, some of the major clades did not receive significant bootstrap support and were different depending on the method used, although most major clades, including Rhilphs and Shelphs, were recovered by both methods.
Zygomorphy is found in all major clades of angiosperms27,49.
Estimates of nodal support for these major clades were generally high, but relationships among clades were poorly resolved.
The crurotarsans make up one of the two major clades of archosaurs.
The early evolution of archosaurs: relationships and the origin of major clades.
The major clades impacted by HGT (i.e., wood, blast, root) are shown.
Four major clades with high bootstrap support are marked in different colours.
