For each window size, the range of distance values obtained for all possible window positions is shown. All, full alignment of sequences as in Fig. 2 and 3. In order to estimate the maximum variation in distance values, two unrelated sequences were used. For SAT2, these were KEN/57 and NIG/2/82; for A, they were VLV/122/11 and ARG/68; and for O, they were ANG/10/74 and CAR/16/00.
