saturation of synonymous substitution

[Roland Hilgarth]

Hi everybody,

I have a question concerning synonymous substitution calculations.  When
the rate odf synonymous substitutions per site (ds) the synonymous sites
become saturated.  What exactly does synonymous site saturation mean in
an evolutionary context?

Thank you very much for your assistance

Roland
