Human lineage-specific intra- and interspecies divergence rates around nucleosome dyads. Rates of intraspecies divergence are plotted on the secondary, right-hand y-axis, interspecies divergence on the primary, left-hand axis. Solid trend lines correspond to a sliding window size of 25 bp around each position. Nucleosome positioning data were derived independently from the Schones et al. (2008) and Barski et al. (2007) data sets.
