  1. 1global divergence: min - max range (mean ± standard-error) calculated using the TN93 model of nucleotide substitutions, as for Figure 1.
  2. The number of aa changes (i.e. synonymous and non-synonymous mutations) is given for each gene overall and for the extra-, inter- and intra-membranous organellar compartments, as delimited in Protter (Additional file 6). The distribution of aa changes across different organellar compartments provides a preliminary roadmap for searching for MNIs. The positions of aa sites bearing synonymous and non-synonymous mutations are mapped on the inferred protein secondary structures presented in Additional file 6.
