<p>Conservation is measured as a numerical index reflecting the conservation of
<a href="../misc/aaproperties.html">physico-chemical
properties</a> in the alignment: Identities score highest, and the next most
conserved group contain substitutions to amino acids lying in the same physico-chemical
class.</p>
+ <p>Conservation is visualised on the alignment or a sequence group
+ as a histogram giving the score for each column. Conserved columns are
+ indicated by '*' (score of 11 with default amino acid property
+ grouping), and columns with mutations where all properties are
+ conserved are marked with a '+' (score of 10, indicating all
+ properties are conserved).</p>

Conservation scores can be used to colour an alignment. This is
explained further in the help page for <a
