Elevated substitution rates estimated from ancient DNA sequences.

Biology letters - 22 Dec 2007

Ho Simon Y W, Kolokotronis Sergios-Orestis, Allaby Robin G

Abstract excerpt

Ancient DNA sequences are able to offer valuable insights into molecular evolutionary processes, which are not directly accessible via modern DNA. They are particularly suitable for the estimation of substitution rates because their ages provide calibrating information in phylogenetic analyses, circumventing the difficult task of choosing independent calibration points. The substitution rates obtained from such...
