A phylogenetic perspective on sequence evolution in microsatellite loci.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Apr 2000

Zhu Y, Queller D C, Strassmann J E

Abstract excerpt

We examined the evolution of the repeat regions of three noncoding microsatellite loci in 58 species of the Polistinae, a subfamily of wasps that diverged over 140 million years ago. A phylogenetic approach allows two new kinds of approaches to studying microsatellite evolution: character mapping and comparative analysis. The basic repeat structure of the loci was highly conserved, but was often punctuated with...
