Figure 1.
Variability and saturation of UCE core and flanking regions compared to exons. (A) High variability in exons from Springer et al. (2007) is driven largely by third positions of codons, whereas variability in first and second position codons is more similar to UCE flanking regions. (B) UCEs have low saturation indexes, whereas saturation is highest among third positions of codons of exons. Box plots show the mean (line within box), 25th to 75th percentiles (box), fifth to 95th percentiles (whiskers), and outliers (dots).
