Hello,
Is there a method for ancestral state reconstruction when the character can
take on multiple values, and those values vary in complexity?
For example, some species are white (0), some gray (1), some black (2), but
then some are black and white (02).
Two solutions I can think of are (1) code each combination as a simple
state (so black and white could be coded as '3'); (2) treat each state as
binary character.
Any better solutions, please?
