Abstract
⺠This study examines how outgroup choice impacts tree topology. ⺠Seven large multi-partition genome level data sets were used. ⺠Our results indicate a linear relationship of outgroup distance to ingroup with incongruence. ⺠We estimate incongruent genes attributed to lineage sorting at around 10%. ⺠In one case, likelihood overcompensates for sequence splits causing long branch repulsion.
