Want to know:
The figure shown is a phylogeny created with DNA sequence data and has high bootstrap support values. The tree also includes observed phenotypes (in varying shades of gray) for the five taxa. The character states are indicated by "B" or "b", "G" or "g", and "P" and "p". Evaluate the hypothetical phylogenetic tree using a parsimony approach. For which of the following taxa were there the fewest state changes if the inferred ancestral state was "bGP"?
