THE USE OF RESTRICTION ENDONUCLEASES TO MEASURE MITOCHONDRIAL DNA SEQUENCE RELATEDNESS IN NATURAL POPULATIONS. I. POPULATION STRUCTURE AND EVOLUTION IN THE GENUS PEROMYSCUS
ABSTRACT In this study we introduce to natural population analysis a molecular technique that involves the use of restriction endonucleases to compare mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) ...
CALIBRATING DIVERGENCE TIMES ON SPECIES TREES VERSUS GENE TREES: IMPLICATIONS FOR SPECIATION HISTORY OF APHELOCOMA JAYS
Estimates of the timing of divergence are central to testing the underlying causes of speciation. Relaxed molecular clocks and fossil calibration have improved these estimates; ...
Macroevolutionary Dynamics and Historical Biogeography of Primate Diversification Inferred from a Species Supermatrix
Phylogenetic relationships, divergence times, and patterns of biogeographic descent among primate species are both complex and contentious. Here, we generate a robust molecular ...
Phylogenetic divergence in leatherside chub (<i>Gila copei</i>) inferred from mitochondrial cytochrome <i>b</i> sequences
Abstract We examined intra‐specific phylogenetic relationships in leatherside chub, Gila copei . The complete mitochondrial (mt) cytochrome b gene (1140 bp) was sequenced for 30...
Phylogenetic information and experimental design in molecular systematics
Despite the widespread perception that evolutionary inference from molecular sequences is a statistical problem, there has been very little attention paid to questions of experi...
