Frequency histograms of estimated relative rates of CNEs located in the same genomic regions as putative ‘hearing/deafness’ genes – in each analysis the rate for the foreground clade of interest in given relative to the background rate, which is equal to 1. Rates were calculated in BASEML using the Felsenstein-84 model of substitution, local clock and alpha and kappa estimated from the data (A) Old World fruit bats; (B) echolocating Yinpterochiroptera; (C) Yangochiroptera; (D) Common minke whale and (E) Bottlenose dolphin.
