Figure 1

Box plot comparing mitochondrial copy number between different clades. The grey dots represent the mitochondrial copy number for each member of the representative groups. The top and bottom of the boxes correspond to the 75^th and 25^th percentiles, respectively, and the line through the box is the median mitochondrial copy number for the group. The whiskers correspond to the maximum and minimum mitochondrial copy numbers for the group. Three different groups are represented here: the clades defined by branches 124 and 50, and a group containing all other individuals in the dataset. The y-axis is the mitochondrial copy number. The reported p-values are corrected.
