K_s and K_a values for syntenic orthologs of five sequenced plant genomes

For each syntenic group, the smallest K_s or K_a value among all orthologous pairs was retrieved to represent the value. The lower triangle shows median K_s values, and the upper triangle shows median K_a values. Numbers in brackets correspond to the number of syntenic groups used in each comparison. K_s values between Oryza and four eudicots show saturated substitutions and high variances and therefore should not be considered reliable estimates.
