Abstract
⺠Convergent phenotype evolution can result from recurrent amino acid substitutions. ⺠Effect of convergent substitutions on phylogenies accuracy assessed by simulation. ⺠A small number of convergent codons biased phylogenies when analyzed as amino acid. ⺠Bias decreases with 3rd codon positions if saturation problems are not present.
