[Molecular dating in the genomic era].

Medecine sciences : M/S - 1 Apr 2006

Douzery Emmanuel J P, Delsuc Frédéric, Philippe Hervé

Abstract excerpt

The comparison of DNA and protein sequences of extant species might be informative for reconstructing the chronology of evolutionary events on Earth. A phylogenetic tree inferred from molecular data directly depicts the evolutionary affinities of species and indirectly allows estimating the age of their origin and diversification. Molecular dating is achieved by assuming the molecular clock hypothesis, i.e., that...
