Zusammenfassung:— Commonly used permutation tail probability (PTP) and topology dependent permutation tail probability (T‐PTP) tests incorporate an inappropriate treatment of designated outgroup taxa, and for that reason are biased either for (PTP) or for or against (T‐PTP) rejection of the null hypothesis. A modified test is proposed, in which this source of bias is eliminated.
