Figure 6. Relationship between Teleopsis chromosomal location and the rate of protein evolution.
The rate of protein evolution in Teleopsis was measured as the branch length leading to T. dalmanni expressed as a percentage of the entire tree length based a phylogenetic analysis including A. gambiae and three Drosophila species [50]. The sample sizes for the chromosomal locations are: A - 2034 genes, Onto A – 41 genes, X – 342 genes and Onto X – 23 genes.
