Sites under positive and negative selection in OlfC coding sequences. A schematic representation of site-by-site selective pressure is shown on the OlfCa1 receptor sequence. Nucleotide alignments were generated from the corresponding amino acid alignment [see 4]. SLAC analysis shows the probability of sites being under selective pressure (positive selection shown in red (p < 0.1) or orange (p < 0.2), neutral selection in yellow and negative selection in blue-green (p < 0.2) or blue (p < 0.1). The null hypothesis is that a site is neutrally evolving with dN/dS = 1.
