Correction to: Journal of Molecular Evolution (2025) 10.1007/s00239-025-10277-1
In Table 1 of this article, in the first column “Method (algorithm)” the below words were incorrectly written. For completeness and transparency, the old incorrect and the corrected versions of Table 1 are displayed below.
In Row 1, the word “OrthoL-oger” was incorrect and should have read “Ortho-Loger”
In Row 5, the word “Gen-eTrees” was incorrect and should have read “Gene-Trees”
In Row 6, the word “USE-ARCH” was incorrect and should have read “U-SEARCH”
In Addition to the above in Figure 8 legend, the word Orth-oXML was incorrect and should have read “Ortho-XML”.
