PAI calculation. Part of the taxonomic tree illustrating the PAI calculation. For gene 1, the only ortholog gene was found in Bonobo (gene 2). It means the evolutionary age of gene1 and gene 2 is 13 (“Hominidae” – young genes). Contrariwise, for gene 3 we found ortholog even in opossum (gene 4). It means that genes diverged on Mammalia stage, so the PAI is equal to 7 (“Mammalia” – “moderate age” genes)
