p, the number of free parameters in the ω-distribution. Sites inferred to be under positive selection at the 99% level are underlined and those at the 95% level are in italic. The reference sequence is A-0101 in Suzuki and Nei (2001), and the site numbering is the same as in the structural file 1AKJ, used by Yang and Swanson (2002). The F61 model is used, with branch lengths fixed at three times the estimates from the Kimura (1980) substitution model.
