Methylation-driven model for analysis of dinucleotide evolution in genomes

Table 3 CpG to TpG/CpA mutation-caused changing trends in the numbers of dinucleotides

	ApA/TpT	ApC/GpT	ApG/CpT	ApT	CpA/TpG	CpC/GpG	CpG	GpA/TpC	GpC	TpA
Changing trend	↑	undetermined	↑	↑	↑	↓	↓	↓	↓	↔

Note: The changing trends are inferred directly from the matrix Q, with the symbols‘↑’, ‘↓’ and ‘↔’ representing an increase, decrease, and no-change, respectively, in the numbers of corresponding dinucleotides; ‘undetermined’ denotes that the changing trends in the numbers of ApC/GpT cannot be determined from the matrix Q without parameter estimation
