Construct the data matrix From the DNA sequence data from the 5 taxa. (Hint: there are three variable nucleotide sites, which are the characters) Map all three characters onto both mypotheses using two Colors (same as in Activity 6). 3 position 111111 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 ATTGCGGCCTGTATG Taxon A Taxon B ATGGCGGGCTGTAAG Taxon C ATTGCGGGCTGTATG Taxon D ATTGCGGGCTGTAAG Taxon E ATGGCGGCCTGTATG 1 Determine the treelength of both hypotheses and fill in 3 the treelength and Justify Text minimum number of changes in the table on the lower right. Then compute the CI for both hypotheses and put a checkmark or X to indicate which one is the most parsimonious and which one is the most accurate. 4 Character/ states Taxon A Use the most accurate phylogeny to infer the origin of the new fungal pathogen Taxon B Hypothesis Treelength Minimum CI Most parsimonious Most accurate Taxon C Taxon D 1 taxon taxon A taxon B taxon C taxon D taxon E Taxon E Minimum 2 origin Florida (new) Mexico China…
