From: Nonsynonymous substitution rate (Ka) is a relatively consistent parameter for defining fast-evolving and slow-evolving protein-coding genes

Figure 3

A network of fast-evolving and slow-evolving genes among twelve mammalian species. For any two given species, we calculated the shared number of fast-evolving or slow-evolving genes and subsequently divided them based on the total shared number of genes to normalize the correlation coefficients. We connected the species based on the largest two correlation coefficients for each pair. Red and green lines stand for fast-evolving and slow-evolving genes, respectively, and the yellow lines are the sum of both.
