  1. m maize, t teosinte, ω d N /d S values of the class of codons in M0
  2. aThe CDS number performed for each analysis
  3. bCodon site number based on the multiple sequence alignment of each dataset
  4. cTwice the difference in the natural logs of the likelihoods (2ΔlnL) of the two models (M7–M8) being compared *P < 0.05, ***P< 0.001, under the χ2 test
  5. dCodons assigned to the class evolving under positive selection in M8 with a posterior probability in following parentheses; codons underlined have the posterior probability of > 0.90 by Bayes Empirical Bayes estimates
