  1. Accession numbers are given for putative orthologous genes from wheat (Ta), perennial ryegrass (Lp) and rice (Os) used for evolutionary rate control. Their synonymous pairwise divergence was calculated as a mean of three estimates (see methods section), and the standard deviation of all three estimates is given in parenthesis. *denotes a mean synonymous distance of two pairwise comparisons between perennial ryegrass-rice and wheat-rice (referred to as TaLp-Os).
