Molecular evolution and phylogeny of the Drosophila saltans species group inferred from the Xdh gene.

Molecular phylogenetics and evolution - 1 Oct 1999

Rodríguez-Trelles F, Tarrío R, Ayala F J

Abstract excerpt

The Drosophila saltans group of the subgenus Sophophora consists of five species subgroups whose phylogenetic relationships are poorly known. We have analyzed 2085 coding nucleotides from the xanthine dehydrogenase (Xdh) gene in six species, at least one from each subgroup. We follow a model-based maximum likelihood framework. We first model the substitution process using a tree topology that is approximately...
