Estimated ω based on YN, MYN, and γ -MYN. We plotted ω values estimated by YN, MYN, and γ-MYN when κY = 3.75, considering κR varying from 1 to10. We used the canonical genetic code for simulated sequences with 1.6 million codons and three sets of codon frequencies: equal (A to C), human (D to F) calculated from human protein-coding genes, and rice (G to I) calculated from rice protein-coding genes. ω = 0.3 (A, D, G), ω = 1 (B, E, H), and ω = 3 (C, F, I) were considered as representative values for purifying selection, neutral mutation, and positive selection, respectively.
