ω values were calculated using the ω categories and the respective proportions under the statistcally significant site-selection model: (**) positive selection, (*) negative selection or neutral evolution (unmarked). p is the probability of a sampled ωB category being higher than a sampled ωM category. E[p] is the expected value of p using the bootstrap technique for 100 000 bootstraps. The odd score is the (1 - p)/p ratio and indicates the likelihood ωM categories are higher than the ωB categories
