From: Convergent evolution of marine mammals is associated with distinct substitutions in common genes
Evolutionary model analyses of genomic convergence of marine mammals.
(A) Phylogenetic relationship of mammals used to identify rapidly and convergently evolved genes. Branches representing independent evolution of marine mammal lineages, for which tests for rapid substitution, likelihood convergence and positive selection were performed, are colored red. Branches of the terrestrial taxa control set, are cow, dog and elephant, respectively. (B) Distribution of ΔdN/dS and ΔSSLS in 5,585 orthologs (n). Loci identified by ΔSSLS, ΔdN/dS and both methods are shown in blue, green and red, respectively and ΔSSLS shown here is estimated from an alternative topology (HA, tree 1) as opposed to a common species tree (HO) (indicated by red branches to the left and below the plot).
