Sensitivity of the likelihood comparison on simulated data. Colors represent method's sensitivity with different numbers of species at different evolutionary distances (measured in substitutions per site). Letters represent approximate placement of commonly compared organisms. A: Yeast species used (96.964 % sensitivity) B : Human – Chimp (0 %) C : Human – Mouse – Rat (0 %) D : Human – Mouse – Rat – Chicken (83.489 %) E : Human – Mouse – Rat – Chicken – Dog (89.536 %) G : T. nigroviridis – T. rubripes – D. Rerio (68.372 %) H : C. elegans – C. brigssae – C. remanei (86.561 %) F : Human – Baboon – Cat – Dog – Cow – Pig – Mouse – Rat (98.761 %) I : D Melanogaster – D. simulans – D. yakuba – D. psuedoobscura (98.564 %).
