I'm almost satisfied with this revised manuscript. Now I can recommend this manuscript to publish in this journal. The followings are minor comments.
# Minor comments
p.11 l.12 '27 primer pairs' must be '25 prime pairs'
p.11 l.13 '11 pairs of single-copy' must be '10 paris'
p.12 l.18 'deviation of the two models'. Please explain "two models" explicitly.
p.13 About the calculation method of KaKs in A.halleri genes. The authors add extra codons when they found more than one variable sites in a codon. This 'concatenated codons method' increases the number of comparison and may cause underestiamtion. Please discuss on this issue. …show more content…

p.21 l.23 Please explain what 'unclear selection'
