  • CNCN relative rate test
    Outgroups are Heterodontus francisci HOXA and Polypterus senegalusHOXA. Latimeria is tested as variable "foreground" against the assumption of contant rates of both outgroups and the 2nd ingroup (negative z' values mean that Latimeria is slower), and as part of the "background" (positive z' values mean that the 2nd outgroup is faster than outgroups and Latimeria.

    Bootstrapping example

    Distribution of z' values after resampling CNCNs (HfA,PsA,LmA,MdA) in 100 replicates. The triangle give the value of the original data, bullet and whiskers indicate mean man and standard deviation of the bootstrapped distribution.
