Figure 2

Sequence divergence of transcription factors in C. elegans . Rates of synonymous substitutions per synonymous site (dS) (A) and non-synonymous substitutions per non-synonymous site (dN) (B) as calculated under model 0 in PAML (Yang) for non-TF (10,827), TF genes conserved in nematodes, fly, mouse, and human (150) and TF genes conserved among the three nematode species (652) are shown. The boxplot indicates the first and third quartiles and the dotted lines the 5th and 95th percentiles. The notches indicate the level of uncertainty associated with the median.
