Gene conversion tracts as identified by GENECONV [66]. Tract no. as depicted in Fig. 2. Simulated P value is based on 10,000 permutations; Start and End indicate the first and last nucleotide position of the conversion tract, respectively; Fragment Length is the length of the conversion tract; No. of Polymorphisms is the number of sites within conversion tract which are polymorphic in the alignment of all alleles; Total Differences is the number of mismatches between the two compared sequences. Sequence pairs are sorted based on the starting position of the conversion tract.
