Correlated evolutionary divergence of egg size and a mitochondrial protein across the Isthmus of Panama.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jun 2002

Marko P B, Moran A L

Abstract excerpt

An explicit assumption of studies that employ a mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) molecular clock is that mtDNA evolves independently of morphology. Here we report a very strong correlation between egg size divergence and cytochrome c oxidase-1 (CO1) amino acid sequence divergence among sister species of bivalve molluscs separated by the Central American Isthmus (i.e., "geminate" species). Analyses of the molecular data...
