Fig. 4

Comparison of dTN and selection pressures across similar clades. The figure shows a comparison of genetic distance and selection pressure among multiple similar clades. Each datapoint in the figures is computed from pairwise comparisons of each protein-coding mt-gene across all the species in a clade. Although the datapoints are the same, the boxplots highlight the differences between clades, while the violinplots highlight the difference across clades and phyla. The numeric axis in each figure is measured as either Tamura-Nei Distance or dN/dS, and the axes have the same values in both boxplots and violinplots. The statistical tests performed on each clade can be seen in Additional file 3: Table S4
