Figure 5From: Measuring the prevalence of regional mutation rates: an analysis of silent substitutions in mammals, fungi, and insectsAutocorrelation of normalized substitution rates r for cow-dog (a) and human-macaque (b). In each species pair, nearby genes have correlated silent site substitution rates even at distances up to 10 Mb. These lengthy regional biases are typical of mammalian genomes, and are much larger than those of the Candida fungi.Back to article page
