Calibrating bacterial evolution.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 26 Oct 1999

Ochman H, Elwyn S, Moran N A

Abstract excerpt

Attempts to calibrate bacterial evolution have relied on the assumption that rates of molecular sequence divergence in bacteria are similar to those of higher eukaryotes, or to those of the few bacterial taxa for which ancestors can be reliably dated from ecological or geological evidence. Despit...
