BS, branch site. P threshold value is Bonferroni corrected. Genes involved in both spermatogenesis and oogenesis are underlined.

a

Model under which ω > 1 was inferred. Under M8, a single distribution of ω (following a β-distribution) is assumed for the entire tree. “sim,” “sec,” “simsecmel,” and “yakere” refer to a model under which a class of sites with ω > 1 is assigned to the simulans, sechellia, simulans–sechellia–melanogaster, and yakuba–erecta lineages, respectively, but not to any other lineage.

b

P-value for the test(s) indicated under “Model,” with M7 used as the null for M8 and a model disallowing ω > 1 on any lineage used as the null for the lineage-specific positive-selection model. Where two or more values are indicated, the order is the M8 vs. M7 comparison and/or the branch-site test(s) with the order terminal branch (i.e., sim, sec, or mel) first and the internal branch (i.e., simsecmel or yakere) second.

c

ω estimated under the appropriate model.
