Maximum parsimony tree of L1b mtDNA genomes. The mutations are displayed along the branches; numbering is according to the revised Cambridge Reference Sequence (Andrews et al. 1999); uppercase letters (A, C, G, T) indicate transitions, whereas lowercase letters refer to transversions. (+) Insertions; (d) deletions. An additional suffix “!” indicates a back mutation. Population codes are indicated in the legend within the figure. Branches shaded in gray indicate subclades that are reported for the first time in the present study.
