These distances are computed separately for genes shared by the three Buchnera and functional, and for genes lost or pseudogene in at least one of the two other Buchnera genomes, compared to the reference. Bottom line: significance of Student tests for comparisons between the `shared' and `lost' categories; *** (P < 0.001).
