We investigated whether or not evolutionary change in DNA sequence data was homogeneous across different classes of base pairs. DNA sequences for eight protein-coding mitochrondrial genes were obtained for 38 vertebrate taxa from GenBank. Each nucleotide site in the alignment was classified according to a number of covariates, including its codon position, genetic code degeneracy, and hydrophobicity. The...
