Functional divergence analysis indicated that PAP2c family diverged from SPL and SPT.
Overall, functional divergence analysis supports that STIM-1 and -2 diverged after gene duplication and displayed shifts in the evolutionary rates in specific residues.
Interestingly, if the invertebrate STIMs were clustered as an independent group in the divergence analysis (with the exclusion of the C-terminal divergent domain sequences), there was no significant difference between STIM-1 and the invertebrate cluster (θ = 0.001).
These results indicate together with the functional divergence analysis that in fact the three GroEL proteins have functionally diverged.
The results of the functional divergence analysis (Table 3) suggested that OPR genes should be significantly functionally divergent from each other, owing to the evolutionary rate differences at some amino acid sites.
I.H. and S.P. performed divergence analysis and contributed to the writing of the manuscript.
The results of functional divergence analysis provided statistical evidence for shifted evolutionary rate after gene duplication.
Poincaré maps, a divergence analysis with respect to initial conditions, and a bifurcation diagram with respect to frequency are presented.
Aggarwal, R. K., Brar, D. S. & Khush, G. S. Two new genomes in the Oryza complex identified on the basis of molecular divergence analysis using total genomic DNA hybridization.
It is also shown that the effect of structural stiffness variation caused by the change of slot width ratio cannot be neglected in stationary torsional divergence analysis.
Divergence analysis revealed that most identified Tc1/mariner transposons have undergone one round of recent accumulation, followed by a decrease in activity.
