Figure S4. Phylogenetic trees of four mammalian species estimated by maximum likelihood method
under GTR substitution model based upon the concatenated CDS regions from nuclear
genes (A) and mitochondrial genes (B). Numbers below the branch are bootstrap supporting
ratios and numbers above the branch are the average substitution numbers per site,
which are related to Ka and Ks by
where Na and Ns are numbers of non-synonymous and synonymous sites.
