Table 1 Substantially increased comparisons and decreased P-values to be considered significant for Bonferroni correction along with the increase of sequences if every possible combination is calculated

From: OrgConv: detection of gene conversion using consensus sequences and its application in plant mitochondrial and chloroplast homologs

Using 2 sequences (e.g. geneconv)

Using 3 sequences (e.g. RDP)
