Table 2 Comparison of the best ML unconstrained trees with the constrained best ML trees of both mitochondrial and nuclear phylogenies

From: Comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of all species of swordtails and platies (Pisces: Genus Xiphophorus) uncovers a hybrid origin of a swordtail fish, Xiphophorus monticolus, and demonstrates that the sexually selected sword originated in the ancestral lineage of the genus, but was lost again secondarily
