Measuring the effect of phylogenetic signal on splitter values.} (A) Boxplot of the splitter values for 100 randomized datasets (white) obtained for each of the ten datasets with two monophyletic clusters. Splitter values for the initial BM datasets with two clusters are shown in purple. Boxplot of 100 datasets simulated under a simple BM process with no clusters on a single tree (coral) is shown for comparison. (B) Boxplot of Blomberg’s $K$ for each randomized dataset (white); values for the initial BM datasets with two clusters are shown in purple. Boxplot of 100 datasets simulated under a simple BM process with no clusters on a single tree (coral) is shown for comparison.
