Figure 1

Comparison of the shared interaction ratio for duplicate gene products and random protein pairs. Whole-genome duplicates (WGDs) are illustrated in blue and small-scale duplicates (SSDs) are illustrated in red. Mean shared interaction ratio r is plotted against gene sequence divergence measured by non-synonymous substitution rate (Ka). The dashed lines indicate the average shared interaction ratio for WGDs (blue), SSDs (red), and pairs of proteins selected at random from the genome (black). Error bars show standard errors on the mean of r for each bin.
