  3. (3) ω = dN/dS (Number of nonsynonymous changes per nonsynonymous sites/Number of synonymous changes per synonymous sites); infinite values of ω (∞) indicate that the model did not find synonymous changes for the branches tested (dS = 0; ω ~ ∞). However, this (i.e., ω ~ ∞) does not affect the validity of the Likelihood Ratio Test, which was used to identify the genes under positive selection (Z. Yang, pers.
