a Data set analyzed: real, or simulated by using four distinct γ shape parameters (10 simulations each, average results are given)

b Proportion of variable sites within humans (Pw) or between primates (Pb)

c Total homoplasy within humans (Hw) or between primates (Hb)

d Correlation coefficient between the site specific parsimony scores within humans vs. between primates

e Maximal site-specific parsimony score within humans

f Number of sites showing a within-humans parsimony score higher than five, respectively 10

g Number of sites showing a within-humans parsimony score higher than five and a between-primates parsimony score equal to zero
