  1. No. parameters, the total number of free parameters for a particular model
  2. No. branch parameters, number of clades defined to evolve by a local clock
  3. —logeL, the likelihood of the data, given the model
  4. AICc, corrected Akaike Information, AICc = -2(logeL) + 2K(n/(n-K-1)) and logeL is the likelihood function, n is the number of sites in the alignment, and K is the number of free model parameters
  5. Λ, the chi-square distributed, Λ = 2 * the difference in logeL between two models
  6. df, degree of freedom, df = the difference in no. parameters between two models
  7. P value, significance of log likelihood ratio test comparing fit of two models (including after Bonferroni correction where P = α/m, and m is the number of branch parameters)
  8. Na, not applicable
  9. ***P < 0.001; Jas = Jasmineae; Lig = Ligustrinae; Ole = Oleeae; For = Forsythieae
