Additional file 4: Table S4. of The influence of ecological and geographical context in the radiation of Neotropical sigmodontine rodents

Results of fitting diversification models to the completed data sets for the sigmodontine radiation in Laser and TreePar. Table showing the diversification models fitted to the branching times derived from the 1000 completed data sets generated via CorSiM. For each simulation (#sim) AIC values and Delta AIC are given. AIC values for the best fitting models according AIC are highlighted in bold numbers. Models considered: pure-birth model -PB-, birth-death -BD-, two rate-variable models [logistic density-dependent model and the exponential density-dependent model (DDL and DDX respectively)] and BD2r and Y2r [variants of BD PB models with a rate shift at a certain time “st”]. In the Laser analysis, parameters are abbreviated as follows: λ = speciation rate; μ = extinction rate; r = net diversification rates (speciation-extinction), kd = k-parameter from the DDL model; xp = the x-parameter from the DDX model. In the TreePar analysis: r1 = initial rate and r2 = final rate; a = extinction fraction (extinction/speciation); st = shift time. Mean and standard deviation of AIC, delta AIC and parameters values are given for the entire data set. (XLS 775 kb)
