Homogeneity of sequence groups measured in affinity trees and in the phylogenetic tree. Each inner node of an affinity tree is represented by a single dot. Homogeneity of the corresponding sequence group is measured in the affinity tree by 1−minComp (X-axis) and in the phylogenetic tree by the maximum distance from leafs representing these sequences to their lowest common ancestor (Y-axis). Top row: PangTree algorithm, bottom row: Lee’s algorithm. Left column: simulations without rearrangements, right column: simulations with rearrangements
