Realized diversification of the reactions associated with a compound (the fraction of species that do not have a reaction among all of the species that have the substrate compound for the reaction) was predicted by the connectivity of the substrate compound (reactions per compound), but not by the substrate compound’s distance from a dietary compound. Shown are partial regressions of the realized diversification of a reaction on (a), the enzymatic connectivity and (b), the distance from a dietary compound of the reaction’s substrate compound
