Mutational bias affects protein evolution in flowering plants.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Jan 2004

Wang Huai-chun, Singer Gregory A C, Hickey Donal A

Abstract excerpt

Amino acid sequences from several thousand homologous gene pairs were compared for two plant genomes, Oryza sativa and Arabidopsis thaliana. The Arabidopsis genes all have similar G+C (guanine plus cytosine) contents, whereas their homologs in rice span a wide range of G+C levels. The results show that those rice genes that display increased divergence in their nucleotide composition (specifically, increased G+C...
