Phylogenetic tree, and substitution rate and pattern for the analysed taxa. a A phylogenetic tree that depicts the taxa included in this study. The mouse-related clad is coloured light blue, and the ctenohystrica clad is coloured light green. The red branches represent subterranean rodent lineages. b, c, d Box plots that show the per-site rates of non-synonymous substitutions (rN), per-site rates of synonymous substitutions (rS), and the ratio of non-synonymous to synonymous mutations (dN/dS) of genes for subterranean rodent lineages (the blind mole rat, BMR and naked mole rat, NMR) and their non-subterranean relatives (the mouse and guinea pig, respectively)
