Abstract

Abstract Using a biogeographical example, we show that the strict consensus of parsimony programs fails to summarize the information present in the initial hypotheses of homology. The intersection tree used in the three-item analysis program Nelson05 maximizes the compatibility of the three-item statements deduced from the source trees. The 3ia solution is more precise than the parsimony one because it accurately summarizes the initial information.
