Sliding window plot of A) π and B) d N / d S for domain I of Plasmodium lucens ama - 1 . Nucleotide positions are relative to the P. falciparum 3D7 line sequence. The window length is 30 bp with a step size of 9 bp for the sliding window analysis of π. The window length is 90 bp with a step size of 3 bp for the sliding window analysis of d N/d S. Asterisks indicate regions with a significant excess of non-synonymous substitutions.
