Extended Data Figure 10: Nonsynonymous over synonymous substitution rates across Y/X (W/Z) branches and simulated multi-copy genes.

From: Origins and functional evolution of Y chromosomes across mammals

Extended Data Figure 10

a, Median dN/dS values for all Y/X branches and branches leading to autosomal orthologues in outgroup species with different sex chromosome systems (A). Statistically significant differences (Mann–Whitney U-test): Benjamini–Hochberg-corrected *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001. b, Mean coverage values from 1,000 different complementary DNAs from human (>1 kb <10 kb) that were introduced to a mock genome having different copy-numbers (CN), that is, from 1 copy to 20 identical copies. Error bars, maximum and minimum values, excluding outliers.
