Function-Based Tests. (A) Enzyme classification conservation test. The linear regression curve has an intercept value of 101.8 and a regression coefficient of −6.887E−05. (B) Gene ontology conservation test. The linear regression curve obtained on the GO term annotation has an intercept value of 54,55 and a regression coefficient of −5.184E−05. The black lines are the linear regression obtained on all methods except the meta-approach, the metaPhors and the BRH plus HMM profiles approach. Error bars for each method are in black. Fourteen methods were compared: ·: Meta-approach. Δ: metaPhOrs [18]. □: BRH [33] with complete link. □: BRH with complete link plus HMM steps. +: Ensembl compara v2 [38]. ×: Inparanoid pairs [26]. œ: OMA Groups [27]. ∇: orthoinspector 1.30 [44]. ⊠: PANTHER 8.0 [45]. ▲: phylomeDB [19]. ■: Roundup (RSD 0.8) [28]. ◆: Inparanoid with 20% simple link. œ: OrthoMCL. ⋆: Phylogeny. ✱: The four methods used for the meta-approach.
