  • a In the 2:2 class, both species have kept both copies of the gene at the locus. In the 2:1 class, the first species has kept two copies and the second has lost one, vice versa in the 1:2 class. In the 1:1 ortholog class, both species have lost the same syntenic copy of the gene. In the 1:1 paralog class, one species has lost the copy from track A and the other has lost the paralog from track B
