Note.—M0 and M1 are free-ratio models that assume all branches to have the same ω (M0) or allow each branch to have its own ω (M1). MA and MA1 are branch-site models that assume four classes of sites: The MA model allows a proportion of codons to have ω ≥ 1 on the foreground branches, whereas the MA1 model does not. 2Δln L is twice the difference of the natural logs of the maximum likelihood of the models being compared.
