Similar relative mutation rates in the three genetic compartments of Mesostigma and Chlamydomonas.

Protist - 1 Jan 2012

Hua Jimeng, Smith David Roy, Borza Tudor, Lee Robert W

Abstract excerpt

Levels of nucleotide substitution at silent sites in organelle versus nuclear DNAs have been used to estimate relative mutation rates among these compartments and explain lineage-specific features of genome evolution. Synonymous substitution divergence values in animals suggest that the rate of mutation in the mitochondrial DNA is 10-50 times higher than that of the nuclear DNA, whereas overall data for most seed...
