Fig. 3: Bayesian phylogenetic tree of the newly reconstructed mtDNA genomes with previously published ancient and recent modern human mtDNA genomes constructed with BEAST2.

From: Homo sapiens reached the higher latitudes of Europe by 45,000 years ago

Fig. 3

The posterior probability is shown for each branch point and the x axis shows the years before present. Individual genomes are coloured to denote whether they are ancient (blue) or modern (black) genomes; newly sequenced mtDNA genomes from this study are coloured in red. The Neanderthal mtDNA genomes used to root the tree and modern human mtDNA genomes falling outside the clades shown are not depicted. Asterisks mark mtDNA genomes with no pairwise differences. MtDNA haplogroups (L, M, N, R and U) are labelled in the right column.
