Human-macaque comparisons illuminate variation in neutral substitution rates.

Genome biology - 30 Apr 2008

Tyekucheva Svitlana, Makova Kateryna D, Karro John E, Hardison Ross C, Miller Webb, Chiaromonte Francesca

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The evolutionary distance between human and macaque is particularly attractive for investigating local variation in neutral substitution rates, because substitutions can be inferred more reliably than in comparisons with rodents and are less influenced by the effects of current and an...
