Mean pairwise differences were separately calculated for synonymous (ds) and nonsynonymous (dn) sites along with their standard errors. Heterogeneity of differences across these groups of exons was analyzed by the Z-test. Representative examples of the heterogeneity test are the following: lines 1–8 are examples of differences between sequences that have the most similar 5′-ends in the explorative data analysis (marked with a shaded bar in Figure 2A); lines 9–15 are examples of pairwise comparisons between the two groups that have more similar and more diverged exon 2+3 sequences in the genealogy analysis (shaded bar sequences vs. nonmarked sequences of Figure 2A). The final lines (16–18) are comparisons among the sequences that have diverged exon 2+3 sequences in the genealogy (nonmarked sequences of Figure 2A). Test of the hypothesis that ds or dn of exon 2+3 or exon 4+5 equals the corresponding value for exons 6–9; *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01.
