Figure 8From: Molecular evolution of neuropeptides in the genus DrosophilaPlot of the net distance between paracopies for each amino acid position. (a) Each data point represents the average net amino acid distance Danp ± standard deviation between the paracopies for each amino acid position throughout the species. (b) The mean ± standard deviation of the data for multiple copy peptides compared to the mean Dao ± standard deviation of single copy peptides (see Figure 6c). The asterisks indicate a significant difference between multiple and single copy peptides.Back to article page
