Abstract excerpt
We compared two haploid genotypes of one Ciona savignyi individual and identified codons at which these genotypes differ by two nonsynonymous substitutions. Using the C. intestinalis genome as an outgroup, we showed that both substitutions tend to occur in the same genotype. Only in 53 (34.4%) of 154 codons, one substitution occurred in each of the two genotypes, although 77 (50%) of such codons are to be...
