Why are fractions listed in the bootstrap bipartition table when 100 bootstrap replicates are performed?
In some cases PAUP might find multiple optimal trees for a given replicate. If it does, PAUP will give the tree a weight that is equal to the reciprocal of the number of trees found in the replicate. You can see this for yourself if you use the treefile option under the bootstrap command to save all trees during search.
