1 Uncorrected pairwise sequence divergence.

2 Ratio of transitions to transversions.

3 Protein coding genes: synonymous substitutions vs. non-synonymous.

4 Ribosomal genes: the number of distinct haplotypes that differed for indels (insertion/deletion).

5 Average length in base pairs of indels.
