The data used for Fig. 3 were analyzed, with 250 independent bootstraps for each bin of KA values, performed as described in Materials and Methods. The entries show the means and (in brackets) the upper and lower 2.5 percentiles of the bootstrap distributions of the relevant parameter estimates. GC, gene conversion.
