8960bp bootstrap

Consequences of increased data set for phylogenetic corroboration:

Phylogenetic relationships among gadid codfishes as inferred from mtDNA. Blue numbers indicate bootstrap support from an empirical 896 bp data set [401bp Cytb + 495bp COI] (1,000 re-samplings), Red numbers indicates support from a hypothetical 8960bp set.
