Table 2.
ω | d N | d S | |
---|---|---|---|
Capybara | 0.0964 | 0.006 | 0.065 |
Other rodents | 0.0674 | 0.006 | 0.108 |
P-value * | <0.001 | 0.246 | <0.0001 |
P-values are based on permutation tests. The elevated ω value observed in the capybara is caused by an overall lower synonymous substitution rate (dS) relative to the rest of rodents consistent with a GTE.
