Consistency of genome-based methods in measuring Metazoan evolution.

FEBS letters - 13 Jun 2005

Zdobnov Evgeny M, von Mering Christian, Letunic Ivica, Bork Peer

Abstract excerpt

Seven distinct genome-wide divergence measures were applied pairwise to the nine sequenced animal genomes of human, mouse, rat, chicken, pufferfish, fruit fly, mosquito, and two nematode worms (Caenorhabditis briggsae and Caenorhabditis elegans). Qualitatively, all of these divergence measures are found to correlate with the estimated time since speciation; however, marked deviations are observed in a few...
