a θ is the coefficient of functional divergence; θ1 ± S.E. is the coefficient of type I functional divergence between two clusters and its standard error.

b The significance level (P value) is computed using Fisher's transformation.

c Qk, posterior probability. A site-specific profile based on the posterior probability (Qk) was used to identify critical amino acid residues that were responsible for functional divergence.

d Numbering of amino acid residues corresponds to AtOPR02-1. Critical amino acid sites with the highest posterior values (Qk>0.70) are shown.

* The amino acid residues depicted with an asterisk were also found to be predicted in positive-selection sites between OPR paralogues (see Table 2).
