  1. Abbreviations: LRT, likelihood ratio test; PAML, phylogenetic analysis by maximum likelihood.
  2. P-values of likelihood ratio tests (LRT) are provided.
  3. aHypothetical proteins are predicted from genomic data, but have no evidence of expression to date; predicted proteins have evidence of expression from ESTs or other mRNA analysis.
  4. bCases with a value beginning with > indicates that the dS level was very low (<0.0001) or equal to zero while dN was markedly >0, wherein PAML assigns no estimate of ω (that is, a default value of 999), but only indicates whether a statistically significant difference is present and the direction of the difference.
