How do we decipher the results!! I had a total of 110 sequences from 20 different species. How do I explain the results !! It will be highly regarded if someone helps me out. I have attached the result generated by ABGD
Hi Nirjhar,
the graph at the bottom is the one that should tell you how many taxa are present for each prior. While your initial partition is very stable, at 9 taxa (white squares), the recursive analysis shows variations ranging from 9 to 28 taxa (dark squares). ABGD is a very useful model and it gives you a nice idea of the diversity present in your dataset, however, to understand which is the number of taxa that better suits your results, you should implement this with other data (I would suggest both genetic and morphological data!).
Hope this can help!
