Abstract
⺠The composite taxon approach was applied to DNA matrices with varying amount of missing data. ⺠As expected, the level of congruence to model trees decreased as missing data increased. ⺠Missing data and composite matrices were equally congruent to model trees. ⺠We conclude that the composite taxon approach is worth considering in a phylogenomic context.
