Measures of selection (dN/dS) were calculated for bap1 (GenBank: MF116383) orthologs under three models. M0 assumes one dN/dS ratio for the whole protein. M1 assumes the protein is evolving under near-neutral selection and calculates dN/dS for two site classes (dN/dS = 1 and dN/dS <1). Lastly, M2 assumes there are three codon site classes in the protein (dN/dS < 1, dN/dS = 1 and dN/dS >1). The tests show M2 is the best model and that bap1 orthologs have sites under negative, neutral, and positive selection.
