Figure 5

Mutation rates for sequence changes that remove CpG and UpA dinucleotides in different eukaryotes. (A) Rates for mutations removing CpG dinucleotides among the first three parameters for genomic DNA and mRNA sequences of different eukaryotes (B) Mutations removing UpA dinucleotides. Zero values indicate that mutational biases were not detected.
