Figure 3

Relationship of duplication type and number of interactions. The proportion of WGD genes among all duplicate (WGD and SSD) genes increases with increased number of protein-protein interactions irrespective of self-interactions. a) Proportion of WGD genes among all duplicate genes with respect to the number of interactions. (Bins created to contain similar amounts of genes.) b) Proportion of self-interacting WGD genes among all self-interacting duplicate genes with respect to the number of interactions. (Bins created to contain similar amounts of genes.) c) Relationship of synonymous divergence rate, and the number of PPI partners of each gene in the duplicate pair. The x-axis displays the synonymous substitution rate (KS) between a duplicate pair, while the y-axis is the mean value of the total number of PPIs of all genes in each KS bin (category).
