Settings:
Min. seq. for flank pos.: 55%
Max. contig. nonconserved pos.: 4
Min. block length: 5
Gaps in final blocks: half
After alignment, ambiguous regions (i.e. containing gaps and/or poorly aligned) were removed with Gblocks (v0.91b) using the following parameters:
-minimum length of a block after gap cleaning: 5
-positions with a gap in less than 50% of the sequences were selected in the final alignment if they were within an appropriate block
-all segments with contiguous nonconserved positions bigger than 4 were rejected
-minimum number of sequences for a flank position: 55%
