The branch-site model in codeml program divides all the sites into four classes, class 0, 1, 2, and 3. Class 0 is for the sites under purifying selection. Class 1 is for the sites under neutral selection. Class 2 and 3 are for the sites that have positive selection in foreground branches. In this table, p 0 and ω0 stand for the percentage and averaged omega value of class 0 sites in the alignment. P 1 and ω1 stand for the percentage and averaged omega value of class 1 sites. P 2 + p 3 and ω2 + ω3 are for the percentage and averaged omega value of the sites in class 2 and 3
