P is the number of parameters in the ω distribution, ω is the selection parameter, and pn is the proportion of sites falling into the ωn site class. For models M7 and M8, p and q are the shape parameters of the β function. Positively selected sites were identified in models M2a and M8 by the Bayes empirical Bayes procedure (Yang et al. 2005). Sites inferred under selection at the 99% level are listed in bold, and those inferred at the 95% level are shown in italics.
