Heterogeneity of nucleotide frequencies among evolutionary lineages and phylogenetic inference.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Apr 2003

Rosenberg Michael S, Kumar Sudhir

Abstract excerpt

A major assumption of many molecular phylogenetic methods is the homogeneity of nucleotide frequencies among taxa, which refers to the equality of the nucleotide frequency bias among species. Changes in nucleotide frequency among different lineages in a data set are thought to lead to erroneous phylogenetic inference because unrelated clades may appear similar because of evolutionarily unrelated similarities in...
