Biological Process Means. Tukey's HSD test for dN/dS as a function of functional grouping based on biological process (BP). A list of all the groups is included in the supplementary material along with the name of the top three GO terms representing each group. The 95% confidence intervals for group means are indicated by vertical lines. The horizontal lines are used to visually identify groups with extreme mean dN/dS values (red vertical lines). Results show that genes representing "lipid transport" (group 15), and "defense response" (group 24) have significantly higher dN/dS values on average, while "cellular macromolecule biosynthesis" (group 1) have significantly lower dN/dS values.
