Figure 3

Correlation of the normalized difference in Ka between two duplicates and the difference in the selective constraint for those two duplicates. The variables on the axes labels are |ΔKa| = |(Ka1Ka2)/(Ka1 + Ka2)| and |ΔKa/Ks| = |(Ka1/Ks1Ka2/Ks2)/(Ka1/Ks1 + Ka2/Ks2)|, respectively. (A) S. cerevisiae. (B) D. melanogaster. (C) C. elegans.
