Studying patterns of recent evolution at synonymous sites and intronic sites in Drosophila melanogaster.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Jan 2010

Zeng Kai, Charlesworth Brian

Abstract excerpt

Most previous studies of the evolution of codon usage bias (CUB) and intronic GC content (iGC) in Drosophila melanogaster were based on between-species comparisons, reflecting long-term evolutionary events. However, a complete picture of the evolution of CUB and iGC cannot be drawn without knowledge of their more recent evolutionary history. Here, we used a polymorphism dataset collected from Zimbabwe to study...
