a Accuracy of GroupAcc in estimating the fold of increase in the substitution rate of foreground lineage given different portions of elements in a group under accelerated evolution. X-axis shows the scaling factor of accelerated lineage branch length in simulation setting, which is the real fold of increase in the substitution rate of accelerated lineage. Y-axis shows the accuracy of estimating the fold of increase in the substitution rate of the accelerated lineage. The weighted estimate of the fold of increase in the substitution rate of foreground lineage across the whole group of binding sites is calculated by (M×r1^/r2^+1M). The accuracy of estimating the fold of increase is calculated as The weighted estimate of the fold of increase in the substitution rate of foreground lineager1/r2in the simulation setting. b Comparison of performance estimating the number of elements under accelerated evolution between GroupAcc and element-level LRT method. Blue curves are the estimated numbers of GroupAcc. Red curves are the estimated numbers of element-level LRT.
