Phylogenetic shadowing option of the Mulan tool. ApoB region sequences from 14 primates were compared to determine the phylogenetic relationship (A) and visualize the conservation by stacked pairwise display (B). The phylogenetic shadowing conservation profile preferentially detects the ApoB coding exon from the neutrally evolving background (C). ECR parameters used for detecting exons: >85% identity; >100 bp.
