  1. Each phylogenetic group as identified by nodes in phylogenetic analyses of mtDNA-, or AFLP-data or by the conflict between the data sets (hypothetical syngameons) was tested for their explanatory value in explaining variance in the AFLP data set.
  2. ¥ Node numbers correspond to encircled node numbers for mtDNA-clades and AFLP-clades supported in Fig. 1.
  3. ¥¥ Groups refer to hypothetical syngameons as indicated by coloured blocks in Fig. 1a and b.
  4. ¶ "Variation explained" refers to eigenvalues of each phylogenetic group that explain part of the variation in the pruned AFLP-data (2355 loci / 33 samples identical to those in Fig. 1a. Sum of all unconstrained eigenvalues was 1.667, sum of all canonical eigenvalues 1.179.
  5. † Marginal effects refer to eigenvalues ("fit") of each phylogenetic group if taken singly as the only variable on the pruned AFLP data set.
  6. ‡ Conditional effects refer to the increase in eigenvalues ("additional fit") of each phylogenetic group as selected by automatic forward selection.
  7. # P-values refer to the significance level of the conditional effects as obtained with a Monte Carlo permutation test under the full model with 9999 random permutations.
  8. * mtDNA-clades as indicated in Fig. 1b that are compatible with clades as identified by the AFLP phylogenetic tree in Fig. 1a.
