Figure 2From: Complete mitochondrial genome sequences for Crown-of-thorns starfish Acanthaster planci and Acanthaster brevispinusThe molecular phylogeny of asteroid species based on the CO1 sequence data. Cucumaria miniata (Cucumariidae) and Paracentrotus lividus (Echinidae) were used as the out-groups. The ML tree was reconstructed with the TrN + I + G model using PAUP 4.0b10. Only bootstrap values of 50% or higher are shown to the left of internal nodes. The first numbers are from neighbor-joining analyses (1000 replications), the second numbers are from maximum likelihood analyses (100 replications) and the last numbers are from Parsimony analyses (1000 replications; characters were unweighted).Back to article page
