Table 3 presents the 20 gene ontology (GO) categories (of the 176 GO categories containing at least 100 genes) with the highest median levels of divergence according to the RSD algorithm.

The label “Zeros” refers to the number of genes in the GO category with a divergence score of zero. The label “N” refers to the number of genes in the GO category. GO categories related to viral processes and immunity are well represented among the GO categories that are diverging at higher rates relative to most other categories. We note that 3 of the 20 (15%) most divergent GO categories are related to viral processes or immunity, while only 2 of the other 156 (1%) of GO categories are related to viral processes or immunity.
