The Ka/Ks ratios of the human processed pseudogenes. Ka/Ks is the ratio between the nonsynonymous rate of substitutions (Ka) and the synonymous rate of substitution (Ks). The human processed pseudogenes are divided into two groups according to whether they contain frame disruptions, and the fractions of the pseudogenes in each group are shown side by side for each Ka/Ks bin.
