Estimating divergence times in the presence of an overdispersed molecular clock.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Nov 2000

Cutler D J

Abstract excerpt

Molecular loci that fail relative-rate tests are said to be "overdispersed." Traditional molecular-clock approaches to estimating divergence times do not take this into account. In this study, a method was developed to estimate divergence times using loci that may be overdispersed. The approach w...
