Genome-wide acceleration of protein evolution in flies (Diptera).

BMC evolutionary biology - 25 Jan 2006

Savard Joël, Tautz Diethard, Lercher Martin J

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The rate of molecular evolution varies widely between proteins, both within and among lineages. To what extent is this variation influenced by genome-wide, lineage-specific effects? To answer this question, we assess the rate variation between insect lineages for a large number of orthologous genes. RESULTS: When compared to the beetle Tribolium castaneum, we find that the stem lineage of flies and...
