With this in mind, comparisons of K s and K a were carried out for the orthologous protein sets that showed a pattern of variation consistent with functional diversification in the whole-genome test (Figure 3).
It consists of only about eight studies of ecological selection, indications that diversification rates are associated with greater scope for sexual selection, selection signatures in a few genes that underlie genetic incompatibility, and a paucity of molecular evidence for bottlenecks (i.e.
True evolution takes place when the theoretical complexity of a population exceeds the number of different molecules that can be created in a single library translation step, and when diversification is required to access compounds in later generations that are more fit than any member of the starting pool.
However, with remarkable consistency, for all three species groups analyzed here, approximately 1% of orthologous genes seem to have experienced accelerated evolution, suggesting functional and potentially adaptive diversification that is conspicuous enough to be detected at a statistically significant level.
I agree with Coyne and Orr that the theory and evidence for speciation by sexual selection is one of the most important advances in speciation studies, but it is important to recognize that the evidence consists mostly of correlations between diversification rates and indices of the likely strength of sexual selection; as Coyne and Orr note, there are no cases in which we understand just how sexual selection has caused speciation.
