  1. N – number of RT clones sequenced.; P1 = proportion of conserved codons as a percent; P2 = proportion of neutral codons as a percent; P3 = proportion of positively selected codons as a percent. dN/dS = ratio of synonymous to non-synonymous at P3 sites. Totals were calculates as an average of all values.
