Utility and evolution of cytochrome b in insects.

Molecular phylogenetics and evolution - 1 Aug 2001

Simmons R B, Weller S J

Abstract excerpt

Cytochrome b (cyt-b) is widely used in molecular phylogenetic studies of vertebrate, but not invertebrate, taxa. To determine whether this situation is an historical accident or reflects the utility of cyt-b, we compared the abilities of cyt-b, COI, and one nuclear ribosomal gene region (D1 of 28...
