Evolutionary rates are compared for genes in colinear versus rearranged chromosomes between human and chimpanzee, and for genes in rearranged chromosomes but inside versus outside the major cytological evolutionary rearrangements between these two species. P values were calculated by means of permutation tests (1,000 random permutations).
