Rapidly evolving gene families. Individual families showing significantly accelerated rates of evolution along the human, chimpanzee, and macaque lineages are shown. Each row is a single gene family, with the relative rate of evolution along the human (red), chimpanzee (green), and macaque (blue) lineages given by the width of the colored bars. The size of the family in each of the three species is shown to the right; italicized numbers indicate significance in that lineage.
