SD, sensor domain; TD, transmitter domain. Tajima's test was performed with DnaSP software. Values correspond to the mean of Tajima's D value computed at each segregating site with exclusion of the sites with gaps. The modified Nei-Gojobori test was performed with MEGA 2.0 software. The values represent the overall mean of the differences at synonymous and nonsynonymous sites after pairwise distance evaluation. Standard errors (in parentheses) were computed by bootstrap replications (500 replicates).
