Ancestral haploid chromosome state reconstruction inferred under Bayesian Inference and Maximum Likelihood methods. The ancestral chromosome number with the highest probability is given inside the circle and pie charts at the main nodes. The colors on the pie charts represent the proportional probability of each given chromosome number according to the legend. The known karyotypes of species are given at the tip. The haploid ancestral chromosome numbers with the best likelihood are given in brackets. * represent the same estimated haploid number in BI.
