An unexpected recent ancestor of unisexual Ambystoma.

Molecular ecology - 1 Oct 2006

Robertson Alexander V, Ramsden Cadhla, Niedzwiecki John, Fu Jinzhong, Bogart James P

Abstract excerpt

Previous research has shown that members of the unisexual hybrid complex of the genus Ambystoma possess a mitochondrial genome that is unrelated to their nuclear parental species, but the origin of this mitochondrion has remained unclear. We used a 744-bp fragment of the mitochondrial gene cytochrome b within a comparative phylogenetic framework to infer the maternal ancestor of this unisexual lineage. By...
