A generalized linear model with quasibinomial distribution for the fine-scale intervals on chromosome 2 with conserved recombination rates between D. pseudoobscura Flagstaff, D. pseudoobscura Pikes Peak, and D. miranda after correction for the global modifier. This model illustrates the relationship of average pairwise D. pseudoobscura diversity for 4-fold degenerate sites of unpreferred codons to various factors. Windows that were nonsignificant when analyzed with a rare events logistic regression and had an Odds Ratio between (0.62 to 1.615) across maps were considered “conserved.” For this analysis, the “neutral mutation rate” was set as the average pairwise D. lowei–D. persimilis divergence at 4-fold degenerate sites for unpreferred codons. For consistency between models, if an interaction term was significant in any of the models (see Tables 3, S9, S10, and S11), it was kept in all. Results from uncondensed chromosome 2, XL, and XR exhibit similar relationships (Tables S9, S10, and S11). An asterisk indicates significance at an α of 0.05.
