Rates of nucleotide substitution in sexual and anciently asexual rotifers.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 5 Jun 2001

Mark Welch D B, Meselson M S

Abstract excerpt

The class Bdelloidea of the phylum Rotifera is the largest well studied eukaryotic taxon in which males and meiosis are unknown, and the only one for which these indications of ancient asexuality are supported by cytological and molecular genetic evidence. We estimated the rates of synonymous and nonsynonymous substitutions in the hsp82 heat shock gene in bdelloids and in facultatively sexual rotifers of the...
