Fig. 4From: An analytical upper bound on the number of loci required for all splits of a species tree to appear in a set of gene treesUpper bound on the number of gene trees required for a random set of n gene trees to have probability at least q of being a bipartition cover of a k-taxon species tree with smallest internal branch length T min. The plot uses Eq. 14. a q=0.99. b q=0.99999. The maximal number of independent gene trees in a genome is on the order of 104 to 105 Back to article page
