Analyzes of different phylogenetic topologies of mycobacteria using CAPRIB to validate a the position of M. terrae clade in relation to the slow and fast growing mycobacteria and b the position of M. terrae clade among the slow growing mycobacteria. The column “Phylogeny-based” is established via Fig. 3, while the other two columns represent alternative topologies. For each of the topologies, the number of core proteins, the number of proteins with AA changes, the number of AA changes, and finally the AA changes ratio of the phylogeny-based topology to that analyzed are given. Results in bold indicate the topology with the most markers for each group of trees
